BetMGM operates pursuant to an operating agreement with iGaming Ontario. This Saturday was pretty wild. Me and Luke were out at Whole Foods. I was grabbing a nice little quart of lobster bisque when I get a message that Elon Musk is live on Twitter spaces talking about what was going on with the Twitter files, the things the government has been accused of doing in terms of censorship and election interference. It's really crazy stuff. And I'm walking around Whole Foods and I got this like phone up to my ear listening to this crazy conversation when Elon Musk said something to the effect of, if I commit suicide, it's not real. Because people were talking about the real threat to his life because of what he's doing.

Well, we have two things. One, I mean, I think that's the big story. Elon Musk was getting in a car and he said, I'm not doing any public signings ever again. He's got security surrounding him. He talks about how the threat of assassination is real. And I think that's really interesting. And it's also interesting how the media has been putting out this generic message of PR for the richest man in the world, all identical, like puppets being given marching orders. It's very strange. The crazy thing is the story itself. Matt Taibbi, I think, did a great job, but he made a big mistake. In the Twitter files, if you didn't see it on Friday, they basically revealed that the Democratic National Committee was reaching out to Twitter for favors to take content down. Now, in one of the tweets, Matt Taibbi said Yoel Roth, saying that he had been reached out to by

the FBI, that there would be hacked information coming to the platform to be disseminated, and it would involve Hunter Biden. This means the government did go to the highest level of Twitter, tell them to take it down. The Twitter files then expose that they had no real justification for blocking the story, but decided to do it anyway. And now we see the big cover-up. So we'll talk about that. We'll get into greater detail. I don't want to rehash the whole story. But the other news is, well, this is rather interesting, and there's a lot of interesting questions about it, but I think I should talk about it.

Around 7 a.m. this morning, two men broke into my house, and I don't know exactly why or what was happening. There's a lot of speculation i don't want to reveal too many details but a shot was fired by one of uh i'll just i'll keep it very vague for law enforcement reasons not by them they the the burglars we don't know what they were looking for what was happening entirely possible it was random i kind of don't think so considering you can't mistake this property when you get on it and everything that's happening there and uh uh after nearly being struck, they dove out the window, panicked, fled, and left behind a wallet with an ID in it.

So the whole thing is very, very weird. Considering what's going on in politics, I figured, you know, maybe we should talk about this and the threats that we've received. The next story we have is that there was a substation shot up in North Carolina knocking out power and the left is claiming it was farright wingers trying to shut down a drag performance show.

Joining us today to talk about all of this is Chef Andrew Gruhl. Thank you so much. It's an honor to be here. Absolutely. Who are you? What do you do? All right, Andrew Gruhl. I you so much. It's an honor to be here. Absolutely. Who are you? What do you do? All right, Andrew Gruhl. I am a chef and restaurateur. Some people might know me from being on Food Network shows or having a series on FYI Network, some other TV stuff,

or from one of my restaurants. I started with a food truck in 2011, grew to 40-plus restaurants, recently sold Slapfish, which was kind of my namesake restaurant. Still have six concepts. I'm from Southern California, Huntington Beach specifically. I'm a father of four and a husband, and that is my life in a nutshell. Right on. This should be really interesting to talk about.

You called out California over the lockdown stuff, which, well, it was contentious, to say the least. Yeah, it didn't. I mean, you know, it depends on how you look at it, whether it went over well or didn't go over well. But without getting into too much of the granular detail, I'll say this. I did speak out about Newsom's hypocritical lockdowns and the state immediately turned on me. But, you know, the good news here is, is that as I continued to speak out and doing so rationally, right, it wasn't anything crazy extreme. Our sales doubled, tripled. The support came flying in there. As that support came in we decided to

start a fund i called 86 restaurant struggle we actually ended up raising over a half million dollars for struggling and out of work restaurant workers not small business owners but restaurant workers at the time um more no less than four months after i raised that half a million dollars i did do a piece on tucker carlson and then antifa quickly turned on me for being an anti-worker mouthpiece, which I think is funny when you contrast that against raising all the money. But, you know, so I've been up and down that California roller coaster and everything post-pandemic. So lots to talk about. Right on, right on. Luke's here.

Definitely expect some questions about bugs and seed oils in the future on the show. My name is Luke Grodowski here of WeAreChange.org, and and i live by two principles don't take people's stuff and don't hurt them a principle that of course the government does the exact opposite of and i think we should definitely be sharing more of these principles and spreading them and if you agree with that you could get that message which is on my shirt on the best political shirts.com because you guys do that that's why i'm here thank you again so much for having me. I'm the wizard, the sorcerer. I'm not sure which one I'm better at,

wizardry or sorcery, but one's with your intelligence, the wizardry, the other one's with your charisma, the sorcery, I don't know. You let me know. I'm looking forward to talking to you about what's that? Is that what that is?

Yeah, sorcerers use their charisma to cast magic. They have less choices of magics they can use, but they're very refined at what they do, whereas wizards use their knowledge and understanding of nature to manipulate and use it so like they'll use like a side like

yeah we'll get into it later on the show what's up dude i'm glad i want to hear all about your perspective on how you dealt with the pandemic as a restauranteur obviously but hopefully we can go deep into just the magic of restauranteuring in general food you know what it's like to own restaurants maybe later in the episode i'll start asking you questions. Awesome. Peace out. And I am Serge.com, at Serge.com. Thanks, guys,

for getting my Instagram number 2K. That was a cool feeling. Gave me a little dopamine bump. There you go. Appreciate it. All right, everybody, let's talk about this first story. Elon Musk claims risk of his assassination

is quite significant. And a little bit more than that. He said, quote, if I committed suicide, it's not real. As soon as I heard him say that, I had to tweet it out. When he was releasing

the Twitter files, he said it was going to be at 5 p.m. Then all of a sudden, he's like, okay, it's going to be in an hour. Then he goes dark and everyone's like,

what's happening? The joke across Twitter was last minute phone call from Hillary Clinton. Aha. So he says, frankly, the risk of something bad happening to me

or even literally being shot is quite significant it's not that hard to kill somebody if you wanted to so hopefully they don't and fate fate smiles upon the situation with me and it does not happen there's definitely some risk there i i gotta say the first thing is uh does that seem like the typical reaction from someone who genuinely feels like they'll lose their life and i'm not saying he's wrong or that's not true i'm saying I guess you'd expect him to react differently, right? Abe Lincoln had a similar thing

where he was just like, they wanted him to have all the securities. Like, you know what? If they kill me, they kill me. And he had a dream a few nights before he was killed of him walking through the White House. People were crying. And in his dream, he was like, what happened?

And they were like, the president's been killed. And then he woke up, Lincoln. And he was like, what? That was weird. A couple of days later, he was shot and killed. so once i think if you're at peace with yourself you just have to be your best self and damn be the consequences but you know i mean what like he said if everyone in the world wants to kill you how long can you survive i mean seven minutes i don't think it's everyone i think it's a certain select few of individuals some of them uh you know

rhyming with Hillary. Sorry. You just literally said Hillary. Pardon my French. But I think there's... Chillery. Chillery, yeah, Chillery. But I think there's a reason Epstein was trending Friday night when we had the delay of the Twitter files.

I think we're living in a society where intelligence agencies do have things like heart attack guns. And if you look at these latest Twitter files, who do they go after? The intelligence agencies that we know were conjuring up lies in order to try to push a narrative and a story and to suppress a story that

would make a political party look good, when of course the reality of it was that they were bad, that there was a lot of horrible things. Do you want to say something? I want to confirm the source. This is from allthatsinteresting.comcom the heart attack gunfighter dart made from frozen shellfish toxin that would enter the target's bloodstream and kill him in mere minutes without leaving a trace it's like in the 60s or 70s i believe 1975 that was yeah

through the i think the commission hearings uh the warren commission hearings i believe if i stand corrected that there was a lot of disclosure with what the intelligence agencies were doing behind the scenes. And this is this is decades and decades ago, you can only imagine what they have now. So with Elon Musk saying that he's taking his security, you know, more significantly, taken taking his security more seriously than before. I mean, obviously, he's pissing off a lot of powerful people that do. Epstein people, let's just be real here. Let's just be honest here with ourselves. You know, one thing that I haven't thought about with stuff like this and Trump, I heard that one thing I've heard. We talked about the reason Trump likes fast food so much is that when you walk into a McDonald's, the burgers already made.

So when you order it, they can't tamper with it. And there's like a fear. I don't know if that's true. But that's gross excuse to eat McDonald's. I just I. But I. It know if that's true. Sounds like a gross excuse to eat McDonald's. I just, it's terrible. It makes sense. I don't want to eat it. But yeah, I mean, I worry about this stuff.

Like, you never know. We live in MAGA country. So for the most part, people come out, fist bump me, and they're really excited. But if I go into like a deep blue area where people are crazy leftists or whatever, do I got to worry about my food getting messed with or something? Food is the avenue through which they typically do something like this, which is why we run a tight ship in my kitchens. But you know, it's funny when I hear that about the shellfish, and my this is how sick my mind is, I immediately go to like braised shellfish with garlic and white

wine and herbs and all of that. You know, with the Elon piece of this, I think two things. Number one, it kind of Heisenberg's principle, which I think I'm using this properly, right, the act of observation ultimately affects that of which is being observed. So if he goes out there and throws this out into the public, you know, that act, right? And then under the observation,

he could change the trajectory. So get it out there, talk about it, let it be public. And then ultimately that could hypothetically change whether, you know, however you want to look at this, change what's going to happen. But number two, he's a businessman at heart, right?

And the more he talks, the more he puts out these kind of hyperbolic statements, the more people are going to go on Twitter, more people are going to tweet about it. I mean, he's driving business by virtue of his own narrative. And it's kind of brilliant because we see the numbers. We see the activity is up. And that ticks everybody off because they talk about how, oh, well, Twitter's going to shut down this weekend. Yeah. And now the headlines came out after he published and produced how successful Twitter was over the past three to four weeks.

Well, that's just a smokescreen. Those are going to go down. And just a correction, it was the church hearings that released the information of the heart attack gun and a lot of other horrible things that the intelligence agencies were doing in secret. But we also have to understand that this was Elon responding directly to questions being asked to him, specifically if he's going to be suicidal at any point in time in his life. And this spurred on this reaction, which of course everyone's talking about, as we're still waiting for the Twitter files 2.0 to be released that we're hearing are in the hands of Barry Weiss. So there's still a lot more. There's some people saying that this was a nothing burger.

There's a lot of people saying that this is a huge, a huge reveal that I think is going to have significant changes in our society. But it all depends, I guess, where you stand politically. It's a smoking gun. I mean, the Twitter files. So one of the things they're mentioning is that the request from

the dnc the specific links were were nudes of hunter biden now fair point uh i can understand why somebody would be like yeah i don't want those up but why is the dnc making those requests and not you know say hunter biden for personal reasons so the first thing to consider the democratic national committee was trying to get these private images from a private citizen who was not running for office removed so when the left comes out and says, Hunter Biden's not the president, not running, he's not relevant. OK, well, then why is the DNC trying to? Well, because obviously it's relevant. The second thing is the images corroborate the laptop is real. If someone came out and said, look at this email, it's fake. How do I know that email is real? Because here's a picture of Hunter

Biden in a private, you know, revealing circumstance that he took himself. That was along with it. OK, not a guarantee the email is real, but it does lend some evidence to the fact. So when they start when the Democrats literally are taking down images of that they had no policy justification for removing it, argued about how they had no policy justification for removing the laptop story, did it anyway. And then a big mistake Matt Taibbi made, with all due respect, because I think Matt does a great job and I think he's fantastic. Jack Posobiec posted the FEC, the federal election documents from Yoel Roth of Twitter saying the FBI contacted us, said there would be hacked materials related to Hunter Biden. Then they just arbitrarily removed that story. B.S. The FBI, like Mark Zuckerberg said, reached out to them and said, the story's

coming. Get rid of it. What did Tybee, what mistake did Tybee make? Did he not include that? Tybee, he didn't. And he said that I've seen no evidence of government involvement in the censorship of this. And then later, Jack Posobiec posted an FEC document from FEC.gov where Yoel Roth was like, yes, they contacted me. Yes, they said the information on Hunter Biden was coming. And to be careful about it, Mark Zuckerberg said the exact same thing. Yeah, and the New York Post released a story today talking about the FBI's hack and leak operation, which they had weekly meetings with big tech social media companies, and they came to them and they said, hey, Hunter Biden is a target of a hack and leak operation that's going after him before the story even was public.

So they knew they probably knew that the New York Post was working on this story. They knew it was going to go public. So they preemptively spread disinformation spread lies in order to confuse and stop a narrative that would make the oncoming political party look uh bad that that right there is is is very very sinister nasty actions that are absolutely playing totally unfair when it comes to this political landscape and i and i have to stress it's not just the fbi according to this document from FEC.gov, he wrote, since 2018, I've had regular meetings with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the Department of Homeland Security, the FBI, and industry peers

regarding election security. He goes on to mention that these expectations of hack and leak operations were discussed throughout 2022. I also learned these meetings that there were rumors that a hack and leak operation would involve Hunter Biden. So to clarify, DHS, FBI, industry peers, the DNI were in contact with Twitter consistently for years. And in 2020 said negative information about Hunter Biden is coming. Who's this FEC? Who's the I? I noticed. Yoel Roth. As you can see right here signed Yoel Roth head of site integrity twitter inc December 17th 2020 I I think that the writing's on the wall with government collusion with big tech I mean I think it's obvious and it's becoming more apparent and more

legally justified if we're going to make these claims with evidence like this but what what when I'm reading the patterns of humanity what it looks like right now is this is a chance to step up each of us because it's like whack them you know is a chance to step up, each of us, because it's like whack-a-mole. You know the whack-a-mole game. Someone steps up and tries to change society, they get whacked. And that's been happening since Kennedy,

since, I don't know, I'm claiming that. I mean, I've got a lot of evidence that Kennedy was, obviously Kennedy was killed, but I'm not saying who did it. I don't know who did it. I know, apparently. Anyway. There's a lot of theories around that one. The chance chance this is where we all have to step up

and take some of the the focus onto ourselves because if we let elon we think he's some superhero he's just a vulnerable guy so i want to be on you know team humanity here yeah look i think that where this is going to start to focus is on the um private versus public element here private versus government element because what you hear is the argument is, no, well, this is a private enterprise. They were, you know, it was a private citizen at the time, Joe Biden, he was just a candidate, he wasn't involved with government. And look, this is, you know, a private company. And that's the argument that's being made. But what's really interesting is it was the DNC, which once again, you can claim that as private, but then you have public government officials as part of the DNC, right?

So you have what could hypothetically be considered in more of the business or the corporate world piercing the corporate veil, right? And by that, I mean is that, yes, so you have all of this through the shell company, the DNC that's private, but then you have public influencers or stakeholders that are on that private committee or that private group that are then influencing this through. So then did you pierce that veil? In the food world, right, as a franchisor, I am responsible by way of new laws for the labor practices of a franchisee. That was a recent ruling, right? And that gets into that kind of that corporate, public, private piece of this. And so if in the private business world I'm responsible as a franchisor for what my franchisee does, even though I have nothing to do with it, by way of just that connection, well, then government should be held to the exact same standard.

There's a very interesting article by Jonathan Turley that was released also that was titled Six Degrees from James Baker. A familiar figure re-emerges with the release of the twitter files that details how you know a lot of this was was centered around from the very beginning this whole russian collusion narrative this whole uh larger agenda here from central figures within the federal government that were engineering a lot of this and when we kind of look at this we got we kind of got to ask ourselves obviously there was some incentive by big tech social media companies to try to make the Democrats win since the Democrats are more favorable towards big tech monopolies rather than, of course, Republicans that were kind of threatening to put them in check.

Threatening in not even a real way, but kind of soft handed way, kind of hinting that they might be interested in doing something like the Republicans always do. And then they kind of back off and scare just like teenagers trying to go up to a girl. That's essentially what a lot of the Republicans did here. And I think this is one reason why to speculate what's really going on here. Is it the private industry or is it the public industry? Who's really responsible here? To me, it doesn't matter. They're all in bed together.

A lot of these individuals are working together. A lot of these individuals know that they need to depend on each other. They have blackmail on each other. And to me, this is a no-brainer that they're codifying the elections for their own personal benefit. But to go along with the private argument, right? Let's galvanize that argument and say, okay, it's all private then, and anybody can do what they want. And that's the argument. It's done. Well, then why are people going after Elon so much? It's a private company. He can do whatever he wants. So you can't kind of scream the sky is falling on one side

but then use the same argument against or for whichever side you're on. And I think that that's something that's just being ignored in all of this when the two sides are battling it out. It was interesting to see the White House response to all of this. They finally decided to release an official statement saying that the Twitter files were, quote, a distraction and old news that are diverting attention from Twitter's, quote, hate and disinformation. So very weaponized, very kind of Orwellian terms used by the White House in response to all of this. And Elon Musk looks like he's not backing down. There's going to be more releases in the

future. There's also a lot of rumors that he's going to be starting a medical experts panel that's going to be questioning the government's logic when it comes to health advice. And he also came out recently and talked about how he thinks that the FTX scandal is a lot bigger than what people make it out to be. And he's claiming that it could be nearly $1 billion that was given to Democrats via dark channels with untraceable money. So there's a lot of things happening behind the scenes that we don't know about, but it definitely is a very fascinating battle with Elon Musk saying he's afraid for his life, essentially trying to say that he's not going to be Epsteined.

He was saying that the risk for assassination is real. I want to talk about this next story to the best of my abilities and explain why. I have a tweet. And y'all have been lighting up the chat about it. I said there's a 9mm bullet lodged in my kitchen now.

I can't say I'm surprised this happened after the wave of doxing and threats made against us. I can't reveal too much of the details about what happened, but this morning I got word that my house had been...

I don't know what the right word is. Burglarized is the legal term, but people typically think burglary implies theft of goods. There was no theft. There was reportedly two men who broke in, climbed through a window. One of our staff members on site yelled out, let me just say very carefully, a shot was fired. The individuals were nearly struck. They fled. They left behind a wallet and an ID, which is very, very strange. Nothing appears to have been missing, and we don't know what this was about. Okay, entirely possible that this was

a random occurrence. Considering we've been swatted so many times, considering we have active threats, and the far left has been posting, let's just say posting an address that they believe is my house, it's not, on the internet excessively, the first thing we thought was seems like it may be random or localized. And then after going over the scenario, talking with some individual security, for instance, we were like, okay, actually, it seems like this might actually be political because the things we would expect from a burglary, a typical burglary in the area, didn't happen. The property in question is large with multiple buildings on it. And without giving too many details away, we ultimately concluded that your typical robbery wouldn't occur in a situation like this.

I don't know exactly what happened. You know, we just know that it did. That's what's been reported by, well, we have the police report that was filed. The police took evidence. And the reason why I want to bring this up is that I've been talking about, I talked about this last week. We've been swatted several times and we've not reported it. Everybody knows that we've been swatted over a dozen times with the bomb squad here and everything like that. And we keep being told by people, don't say anything,

don't let anybody know what's happening. And the first time I heard that, I'm like, it's kind of odd. Like, shouldn't we let people know that there are people trying to murder us? Because then like, I don't know, it just feels like if something happens, no one will be prepared for it. We should be like, hey, guys, these threats are real. They're happening. And what we kept being told was, if you say it, it will it will keep happening. And I'm like, OK, you know what? I agree. It's a tired narrative. So we actually stopped mentioning the swattings were happening. Guess what? They still keep happening. Guess what? After all the death threats and threats against us, I don't blame Elon Musk.

You know, I was thinking about reaching out to him being like, dude, there are people posting addresses for me, Matt Walsh, and a variety of people, and they are spamming them en masse like crazy. There's got to be some way of getting rid of this. But I'm like, what do you really do? How do you really deal with this? So now my attitude is basically this. The left came out, and we'll talk about

the story in a second, and said that a transformer substation was shot up by far right wingers trying to shut down a drag performance. Every single time something happens, Jussie Smollett 2.0, they claim the far right, the far right. Last week, one of our guests said, if you go to the average person and ask them who's more likely to commit political violence, a left winger or a right winger, they will tell you outright a right winger, despite the fact that it's substantially more likely to come from the left, just in every capacity. I know the ADL has their weird rankings, but they claim that black nationalists are left wing and white nationalists are right wing, and none of that makes sense. And I think that there's a reason for it.

How often does Ben Shapiro talk about the threats that he gets? Rarely, if ever. How often does your typical antifa talk about the threats they get? They won't shut up about anything. They get a DM where someone says you're fugly and they'll post it and say, I'm under attack. They're trying to kill me. So what happens? The narrative you start seeing in mainstream conversation is the left is constantly being threatened and the right is fine. When in reality reality this stuff is happening to us so i don't know if this incident in question was political but i find it hard to believe it's a coincidence has happened around the time that people have been spamming at you know

people have been posting on twitter that we shouldn't be allowed to live comfortably but i don't know what you guys think what are your thoughts the story is a little perplexing because it sounds like i'm not going to. We got to be careful. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm not going to, you know, I know the drill. I've been through this before. It's this has been, you know, our entire career.

This is nothing new. I mean, except the more the levels of intensity keeps just keeps getting uh you know higher and higher but i was going to say this is uh this is either a case of the wet bandit from home alone or just someone messing with uh messing with with us so um just deliberately trying to intimidate and scare us so i i think you know again who knows what's really going on here i i think a lot of the things are done to to confuse people it could be a bunch of idiots. You know, poverty is increasing. A lot of people are poor. A lot of people are desperate. But the official story of what happened

doesn't really add up to that. It doesn't really make sense. And the idiocy of it doesn't really make sense at all, especially with the identification card. Yeah, that right away. That right there is like, okay, either they're the lowest IQ idiots of all time, the dumbest criminals of all time,

or someone's deliberately trying to, you know, send a message or something. Well, remember when the planes hit the World Trade Center, a passport fell out of the burning explosion and fell down to the ground. That's how they found the terrorist that did it. That's a good point. It may just

be that this guy who broke in had a wallet with nothing but a single ID in it, and my understanding is the ID wasn't even in it when wallet with nothing but a single id in it and my understanding is the id wasn't even in it when they fled so that means he climbed in and just said oh i better check my wallet for my id and took it out place it down looked at it and then had to flee the building how convenient that now we have a wall an identification and someone to go after how convenient weird i don't like this i don't like talking about it publicly but what i will talk about is the victim mentality because i know what you mean about people claiming oh they hurt me they're violent towards me but you never hear

ben you don't hear ben shapiro say when he gets doxxed you don't hear disney say when they get doxxed because entertainment companies get doxxed that's what happens that's why they have big walls around their their studio um but at some point i don't like playing the victim card i don't like being like he said i got hit today everybody look how sad i am oh i got hurt today everyone look at me look at me but at some point i mean it's worth being honest about what's happening not complaining about it it's just the nature of the entertainment industry i there's one reason i tweeted about it when i heard right so i wake up in the morning and phones are going nuts because it happened at 7 a.m like i wake up and like I'm in bed getting up, getting ready. And it's literally happening. I wasn't at this property in question. And I said, look,

I've, I've told people, please, for the love of all that is holy, if you hate my guts, if you don't want me to be alive, whatever, do not come to my properties. You're allowed to hate me. You can hate, hate me all you want. But if you come to these properties, there is a strong possibility you will lose your life. No one is going to sit back and be like, well, despite all the death threats, I'm going to give this person the benefit of the doubt as they shatter the window and climb through. I don't know what they're doing, but, you know, let's just ask them politely. That's not what any of our security guys are going to do. No, the security guys, you're lucky if you're uninjured when you leave. Those guys, they're probably hurt so that that's the main reason i was like you know i talked about it and said i think i should put

that out just so that like i can make sure this is loud and very clear you know i do not want anyone getting hurt and if you come here so we have people trying to troll we have stupid games and there's a reason why you know who knows some some morons you know coming up i have no idea but uh i i just you know i have to wonder about with all of this going on the other significant portion of the story is that it's been a year since we uh the swattings began and we've been swatted on average more than once per month, sometimes twice, where's law enforcement? I've tried reaching out to some. The amount of crimes that have been committed against us in terms of violent and as well as what I'd consider like white collar crimes, if we could talk about

it, people would crap their pants. But we can't because active investigation stuff, law enforcement, for some reason, nothing's being done about it. I think I realized something, a scary thing. Marjorie Taylor Greene was swatted, what, six times? Six? She's a sitting member of Congress. You mean they can do nothing to protect a sitting member of Congress? Okay, well, that says everything right there.

The courts and law enforcement are incapable of actually maintaining social cohesion at this point. We hear all of these stories about the summer of love, the deaths from 30 plus people dead from Antifa, and there's zero accountability towards any of it. Sounds to me like maybe it's not civil war in the sense that people expect, as we often say, like two sides fighting. It's just a collapse of social cohesion. The FBI, the DOJ are working with big tech to benefit the Democrats. They're not going after the people protesting in front of the justices' homes. They are going after pro-life activists. Social cohesion is shattered completely. The courts are unable to do anything. The crimes are getting worse. I wonder if they ever were able to do anything and if it was always just like the visage of strength and force, like the fear of threat of the cops.

There's so there's like 30 cops and like 700,000 people. They'll have like weird ratios like that, like one cop to 700 humans. No one cop can't stop nine guys. Like, not realistically. Maybe that's it. Maybe they've never been able to do it you know but i don't know yeah look it's it's pretty scary and i think that you actually bringing it up is smart in the sense of people understanding that there is a threat on the other

side of this kind of like fictitious wall that everybody wants to cross to try and scare whether it's you or somebody else and i think you can see it in california right so i'm in huntington beach which is orange county up in los angeles there was this huge kind of rash of all these grabbing you know smashing grabs into the jewelry stores where they just they come in they grab everything and there were certain situations where people would fight back well then they start to move into orange county now orange county is notorious for being very different politically than los angeles a little bit looser on the concealed carry laws what happens when they come and they hit huntington beach they go into a jeweler which is right down the street from us guy is care the guy has a concealed carry pulls his

gun out shoots three of them there was four different cars because they do these in these big groups well you know what i never heard of again after that a smash and grab in orange county yeah very true but you hear about him in beverly hills you hear about them in Bel Air, everything like that. Oh, yeah, they're still happening all the time. I mean, they're happening up in L.A. I mean, it's just kind of an everyday thing now. Now, actually, they have tourists that go to L.A. and they're just sitting waiting to see if they can videotape a smash and grab

instead of going to... No, I'm just kidding. Yeah, you'll get lucky one day. There's enough. Jordan Peterson talks about this a lot more eloquently than I could ever can, saying if you are prepared for violence, the likelihood of violence coming your way is reduced. Essentially saying if you learn self-defense,

you will learn how you absolutely don't need it in many instances. A lot of the stuff out in the streets is a lot of the times when it comes to confrontation and fights, a lot of it is ego. A lot of it is just people not knowing when to walk away. But when someone comes into your house, I mean, that's another level. That's another thing to really kind of take seriously. People should always have the right to defend themselves, but also know exactly what they're doing. They should receive training, and they should take the situation very seriously

because as time goes on, I think it's only fair to say that that especially in major city areas, people are going to become more poor. A lot of them are going to become more desperate. And a lot of the major cities are going to become a lot more lawless. And the only person you could really depend on yourself for defending yourself is you. Yeah. No one else. The people that want to hurt, kill violently don't care about the Constitution. They're going to get a weapon and do it.

You can't stop that. The Constitution protects people from legally defending themselves. The Second Amendment particularly, like the threat of retaliation is what has protected the United States for 100,000 years. But like the reason why people aren't dropping drone. I mean, there has been attacks on, you could argue on the United States, nine 11 being an instance of someone attacking the United States. But it's the fact that we're all armed and ready to just snap back with nuclear weapons with you name it. Orbital strikes.

People do not mess with that because they don't want to get obliterated. And it's the same with menial criminals on the street. If they know you're packing, they're not going to touch you. They're going to look for someone that's been legally muted and not able to have a weapon or something like that or someone that's elderly or vulnerable you know it's disgusting but that's reality this is what i can't understand about california right i mean if you're if you're one of these ultra wealthy celebrities with stalkers living in the hills what do they just got to hire like 50 armed guards around their house all the time like i don't know why wouldn't you want to be armed i

never understood that personally maybe the rich people are allowed to be armed is that it a lot of them a lot of them are a lot of them just have massive walls which uh you know are big beautiful 30-foot walls yeah big big big beautiful beautiful as they call for open borders i do like big walls i've come to really appreciate a large wall to compound or walls and fences and gates around your house i like you'd love south africa man everybody's walled in oh walls and fences and gates around your house. I like it. You'd love South Africa, man. Everybody's walled in? Oh, it's walls, it's fences, it's everything. Is that because it's like post-colonialism or something?

Crime is pretty serious there, right? Yes, crime in South Africa is rather serious business. And can you have guns? Yes, and you can get guns relatively easily. Legally protected? People can be armed in south africa um i don't know for sure probably not but everyone has private security anyway so yeah isn't it like there's like private police basically because they're so good companies are so big yeah what

is that like basically everyone has private security because the police force doesn't really work or in some cases the police force works but they won't come out or they're like oh it's too dangerous or it'll be like oh we'll be, but they'll be there in 40 minutes. And by that time, you know, things have already elapsed. It's not really, it's been your better interest to have weapons and have firearms and be ready to protect yourself at all costs. Because, you know, the SA police force is not going to be there. Yeah, they did the same thing in Detroit, I believe. I believe there's a full report of individuals just hiring private uh security that was armed and them doing a lot

better job than police officers that of course are giving people tickets and generating revenue for the state or shutting down small businesses for daring to defy lockdowns what um how do you guys handle restaurant security and you don't have to be specific if it's all under the you know behind closed doors conversation but what do you guys do yeah no that's actually a great question um because restaurants are targeted pretty heavily especially given the the cash nature of restaurants and then of course you know the fact that um there's so many people that actually go into the restaurants and the reason why i say that's a risk now is because actually they're targeting places where there are a lot of people with handbags and jewelry etc and they're just robbing everybody

in the restaurant so uh you know cameras look you know chefs with a ton of knives and most of them have psychological disorders that's i wouldn't want to cross that line but you know what i think is kind of happening is there's a distributed denial of service in terms of crime occurring crimes we see these videos of people shoveling stuff into bags at walgreens or target or whatever uh rampampant violent crime in New York skyrocketing everywhere. It's so much crime happening at once that not a single one can actually be solved. So, you know, if crime is at a certain level, the police are able to prosecute and arrest and stop some of it. But once it goes slightly above that level, you got 10 phone calls and they're all saying,

I got to deal with this problem. The cops are like, yeah, we can't. I mean, first of all, if the cop was going to arrest that guy, that guy, that guy, that guy, that guy, that guy, that guy, they'd have to go and testify to each of those instances in court several times. Not always. Sometimes it's like open and shut case, but it's just impossible. Like you were mentioning, 30,000, 40,000 cops in New York City

to 13 million people in the Metro, 2.5 million in Manhattan. It's impossible to deal with. And then if you throw in even the slightest sophistication to the crime itself, well, now you're dealing with a whole other level. We had a team member who was a scammer we didn't know, a total con artist, and they're just ripping us off for thousands and thousands of dollars. I believed the story and wasn't going to prosecute it first. And then when we got the police involved, they were like oh this is a they've done it before look at their background this now i said let's go after them then we want we got to stop this dead in the tracks etc etc and they're like oh we're not going to do anything about it right

like well you know how much manpower that takes in the case that we have to make and keep as you said go back go back so even if it's you know the slightest bit of sophistication where it requires more than 30 minutes or there's not a literal smoking gun you're right and it's not just like minor crimes it's not just home invasions it's also murders it's also uh people men forcing themselves on women it's also uh assaults in the adult nature there's there's horrible crimes that go unpunished because the cops are like well we just can't do anything or some cops just don't feel any initiative or or have no reason to actually stop or try to prevent or trying trying to get any justice at all there's no reason for them i was talking to a lawyer about the swattings

and about marjorie taylor green and i said what is the process for dealing with federal crimes i said of course you contact the uS. attorney in the area where, you know, the crime is being committed or whatever. And I said, so we've got 14 or 15 swattings at this point. Bomb squad shut up twice. Studio's been evacuated. How do they have nothing? And not only that, but we actually have a ton of evidence. We have a ton of circumstantial evidence, statements made by potential suspects and other stuff. I don't want to reveal too much because I don't want anyone to realize exactly what we have. And they're just like, oh, yeah, yeah. They look at it and they're like, wow, that is compelling.

FBI is underfunded, understaffed and uninterested. And I'm like, OK, but they can go after they can go to Roger Stone's house at three in the morning or whatever they can they yeah they can do this kind of stuff where they they arrest uh some they raid the home of some lady and was it fbi who raided the home of some lady in alaska because they thought she was at january 6 or something yep yeah they can do stuff like that they can go after 12 12 agents can go after a pole rope at a garage oh yeah i remember that one but we can't be like here's a stack of evidence from a private security company we think we know who's doing it. And they're like, sorry. In times of a golden age where we were in a time of insane prosperity from 1970 to now in the United States where you could call the police and they'd come to your house and be like, what's wrong?

Can I help you? If society starts to break down in any fashion, defer to the Constitution. You have the First Amendment and the second amendment to back you up. You have the right to defend yourself and your property in this country. I want to jump to this next story, but, but real quick, I just want to say,

um, uh, as of 8 PM news broke that Kirstie Alley has passed away. Oh man. Yeah. Uh, a tweet on, uh,

Kirstie Alley's, uh, page says, sad to inform that our fierce loving mother has passed away after a battle with cancer. So rest in peace. Someone chipper chatted, and I was kind of like, what? You know, because I have to just joke.

And then I pulled it up. Yeah, so rest in peace. Sad to hear. Yeah, I was going to say that I loved Look Who's Talking as a movie, but it's like, you know what, Christy? God bless you, my man, woman. Love you, your family,

everybody out there, the alleys, whatever your last names are. Love you guys. Sorry to hear, but beautiful human. Well, life life is short you got to cherish every moment you have and you got to protect it too that's right let's jump to the story from timcast.com drag show protester questioned by police after intentional vandalism cuts power to 40,000 north carolina residents police have yet to name a suspect or announce a potential motive so the first story is shootings at power substation cause North Carolina outages.

Holy crap. I mean, that's that's really what they're saying. Two power substations in North Carolina were damaged by gunfire and was being investigated as a criminal act, causing damage that could take days to repair and leaving tens of thousands of people without electricity. A protester who was protesting the drag events posted on Facebook, the power is out in Moore County

and I know why. Emily Grace Rainey wrote on Facebook, on our Facebook page, according to the Daily Beast around the same time, she posted a photo of the Sunrise Theater,

the venue holding the sold out drag show. She's in the caption, God will not be mocked. So police apparently met with this woman. She said that she's sorry for wasting their time

and what she meant to say was that God works in mysterious ways. The implication was more so that the power went out because the Lord was angry, not that they had any information that right wingers were attacking a power substation, which sounds really stupid as it is. A bunch of conservatives being like, I'm not a turn off the power at a single location. Shut down the entire grid. Makes no sense. But what does matter is that many of these many leftist individuals are outright asserting it is true. Or at the very least, they're pushing the idea without merit. The police have even said it's not the case.

They're posting on Twitter. The escalation is happening. I'm not saying all this, as I mentioned earlier in my other show, to be a black pill. I'm just saying this is happening. And I often point out when we were seeing these stories four years ago, where the left would accuse a right winger of doing something, I'm like, you realize it doesn't matter if it's true. They believe it anyway. Even when you can prove it, Covington kids, Russiagate, hands up, don't shoot. They don't care care so what happens in a situation like this where not only now do we have escalation not only now do we have you know elon musk saying he's he's afraid

he's going to die you have the far left outright saying right wingers are shooting up substations and acts of terror one thing i try to do is to when i it when if and when i come into contact with people that believe stuff like that i try to have the same amount of amazement when they find out they're wrong to, to go to kind of empathize with their amazement as they're realizing, Oh, it wasn't targeted. And then I'm like,

okay, I get it now. And I feel what you're feeling as opposed to be like you idiot. Of course it wasn't targeted. Just be there with them while they realize that they were not seeing the truth at the time. That's one, you know. But they're jumping to conclusions.

It's not a truth. It's automatically everything is right wing. It's them. It's the political opponents. That kind of deranged lunacy is dangerous. It's not, you know, an individual who's critically thinking or assessing information. That's actually, you know, the responsible adult thing to do here is wait until we have evidence. Now we're trying to weaponize everything.

It could be a lunatic. It could be a crazy person. It could not even be politically motivated. It could be just some guy or some kid being like, hey, look at what I could do. Just some deranged individual. Who knows who it is? I've got to be honest. It sounds more likely to be climate change activists and

and antifa than a right winger who was upset with one drag event you've got you've got people like greta thunberg how dare you you know it's like they want to shut the power off yeah they want to get rid of oil they want to get rid of energy they want to literally create human calamity style events that would devastate humanity kill millions of people all because they don't like oil let me throw out a hypothetical what if in protest to all these drag events the right wing actually started to throw paint on classic paintings that were worth millions of dollars how would that be covered yeah i don't i don't think anyone's happy about that to be honest like you know they're getting mocked by everybody the people doing that over the climate change stuff the guy who's funding a ton of it is a massive well-known hollywood producer he's put

like three to four million dollars into the organization that is actually doing this there's it's pretty funny and i bring that up because of the hypocrisy of somebody who celebrates art as this big hollywood producer he learned how to weaponize autism and mental illness very effectively. And these children, you know, clearly show us that there is a mental health crisis, clearly believe they have been so scared that the world is ending because we have politicians like AOC that go on the bully pulpit

and like the world's going to end in eight years. Again, not even quantifying real data, not even going after anything legitimate, but just making things up out of thin air just to radicalize, just to scare people. And then we have these effects of it, which would bring on more pain and suffering to humanity than we could even imagine, which is crazy. But it's interesting to see who finances a lot of this stuff. It's interesting to see the result of this. It's interesting to see the news coverage of this because they've been trying to push through a lot of these lockdowns, a lot of these restrictions.

They're going to be testing some of them out in the United Kingdom for many years now. They couldn't never do it, but then, you know, COVID happened. And now COVID is surely looking like it's going away. So they need something else to, of course, bring on the trauma-based mind control. I want you guys to imagine something. John Brown's raid on the Harper's Ferry Armory. He made one critical error. He let a train leave. When John Brown and his crew raided the army, they basically took it.

They had it. Information could not travel. But a train was passing through, and they knew it was going on, but he let them go. The train, I think, made its way to Baltimore. I could be wrong about the details, but it basically got out, informed the authorities who then quickly mustered their forces and then headed to the Harper's Ferry to stop this. Basically, John Brown was trying to cause like a slave uprising or something to that effect. And I'm just thinking about this.

Today's day and age, information is instant. Something happens, the tweet goes out. But I'm just thinking about what it must have been like to be on that train knowing you were the only person carrying the message

of this attack and that if you don't make it in five hours time or however long it took, two or three hours, to the city to inform law enforcement they would take this city they would have it and that would be the end of it it's a crazy it's a crazy

concept is this a metaphor for twitter files 2.0 no it's just it's just understand how vastly different things have become and how that's having an impact on politics yeah it used to be that the you would try and prevent the truth from getting out. Governments would spend time subverting and putting people in prison and things like that. Now, it's impossible. The truth, now the idea is to put out so much fake information that the truth blends in and you can't tell what's what. And this isn't just limited to politics, right? Because I'm obviously going to bring a culinary angle to this. But let me just, it comes to food too so many

headlines people read about food are wrong and then it affects their dining choices for 10 to 20 years i've actually gone to the extreme of saying that because of the government headlines about eating seafood being a bad thing because of all this hypothetical mercury and pcbs which actually nobody's ever died of mercury poisoning we eat less seafood instead we eat more meat and chicken which is high in omega-6 fatty acids, which is the seed oil issue, which is your inflammation. And therefore, people are dying at a younger age because of that. It happens in food. It happens in every single industry. And the people who perpetuate these lies, it's the mainstream media. Because yes, you're always going to have people on the right or the left who are going to go out there and tweet,

obviously, outrageous headlines. But when it gets picked up by the media and then basically adds credibility to it and then they go on with that lie, well, that's when this social cohesion, the fabric starts to rip at the seams and then we all believe the lie, or many of us do. So you're saying I should just eat nothing but raw salmon? You should eat as much seafood as you can. Really?

Six of the eight leading causes of death in the United States can be alleviated through the healthy consumption of omega-3 fatty acids, mainly found in seafood. Is there any problem with overdoing scallops? Scallops? Well, you might be a little bit higher in cholesterol, but then just cut back on something else. See, there's a reason I love oysters, and there's so much propaganda against them.

Oysters are vegan. What? How is that? Oysters are plants? Stop it. You're going to ruin them for me. Are they not animals? No.

Well, think about it. They actually have a negative effect on the environment because they're filter feeders. So they clean the environment. So they have a negative effect, right? In a good way. And then there's no vertebrae. They're not sentient in any capacity. They're basically vegetables.

That's like eating someone that's... Don't insult them this way. Stop it. Which is why it's delicious. We should be eating more oysters. The poor oysters right now are screaming out for recognition. Through filter feeding, yeah. But, I mean, you can clean entire estuaries just with oysters alone. If you took 100 oysters and put it in a big fish tank full of dirty water and then watch over the next day or so, that water will be clean.

And all of the dirt, you think, well, then it must be going into the protein in the food that I eat. No, it doesn't. It actually goes into the shell, which is then calcified, and then you can use that shell ground up as fertilizer or nutrients in soil when you do some sort of organic farming. It's a completely closed loop. There's so many solutions to the problems, they say, that are out there that nobody wants to consider.

There's a lot of conflicting data when it comes to high cholesterol. We should talk about that in just a little bit. But if we could just stay on topic here just a little bit. Sorry. No, no, no. No, no, no. You made a very good point saying, you know, people hear one thing and people jump to conclusions without actually doing the work towards understanding something fully, especially when it comes to diet. I think that's one of the most misunderstood things when it comes to our mainline society, especially with the obesity crisis that we're all dealing with right now, and how people are getting absolutely wrecked and destroyed because of the disinformation and because of the poison that's out there. I also think there's a lot of, you know, just like we

should be careful about what we put into our bodies, we should be careful about what we put into our minds. And I think a lot of these people have been so traumatized by the echo chambers, by the, what's the circles called? Not family-friendly circles of thought that happened on social media, that they've been so radicalized that automatically something bad happens, they're going to point to their political opposition as their main reasonable force

behind everything ill and wrong in this world. Just like the Club Q shooting. Again, that story went away very quickly. Why isn't anyone talking about it anymore? When there was a certain agenda behind it, now that the agenda has been questioned somewhat, automatically the story's just dropped by the corporate media when they were talking about this thing like it was the end of the world.

Come on. There's a lot of things to really consider here and especially question. Let me bring these stories together because we have a story here. This is from TimCast.com. Police raid Virginia restaurant that defied COVID orders. Owner says state officials tried to strip him and his guests of their constitutional rights. The long story short, in Fredericksburg, there is Gourmet, Gourmelts, I'm sorry, Gourmelts is the name of the place, right?

And it's a business that refused to shut down during the lockdowns, the masks and all that stuff. So they are trying to take away the liquor license. They say police officers entered a Fredericksburg, Virginia restaurant and executed a warrant to confiscate alcohol and records pertaining to the sale of alcohol. After the state's Alcoholic Beverage Control Authority, ABC, revoked the restaurant's liquor licenses following the owner's refusal to follow mandates issued during the COVID pandemic. The restaurant's owner, Matt Strickland, had his alcohol license suspended for 90 days in September after they ruled he willfully and knowingly ignored mandates.

So I wake up and I watch this video where these cops are going in and they're basically shutting him down serving this warrant. I think he got like a 90-day suspension. And my first edit, I got two things to say on this, and then we'll expand because you've certainly been dealing with this stuff.

One, you should watch this video and you should share the video. And if you live in Fredericksburg, you should tell everybody, you know, these cops are not welcome in your business. If they want to destroy a man's life because of unconstitutional edict, they don't deserve a hot dog from your store. They don't deserve a new sweater. They don't deserve a cheeseburger. It is nonviolent civil disobedience that solved this problem. Let these officers know you are shunned. Look, Antifa

likes to say this stuff, but they don't run businesses. They don't have jobs. Some of them do. I get it. But the cops aren't worried about that. I'll tell you what they are worried about. When you have the back of the blue people, the MAGA people, the last line of people actually defending the police, and then the cops people, the MAGA people, the last line of people actually defending the police. And then the cops want to pull something like this.

Simply say, officer, thank you for your service. Now get out of my store. I will not serve you. And then see how long. Then you're the cops being like, look, I'm not shutting this business down. I'll never be able to show my face in this town again. It used to be that way. People used to fear that.

Now, if I do that, mayor, they'll never show my face. Nope. Now they don't care. So this guy films them. Good. that way people used to fear that now if i if i do that mayor they'll never show my face nope now they don't care so this guy films them good the second thing i'm going to say is luke on saturday do you want to go down to fredericksburg let's do it let's do it let's support this business and let's support the people who are doing the good things and and and when they're punished unjustly we should try to do everything we can to help out during those situations. I imagine what can we do? Peaceful, organizing,

just to highlight this stuff. And I think highlighting is the first thing. And I think, you know, maybe I'll go down and take a tour of Fredericksburg, see what's going on. Maybe, you know, we can reach out to this guy, Matt, see what's up, and ask him about what happened,

and then get the full details, and maybe keep shining a light on this stuff. You guys should see the video, and if you haven't seen it, you should watch it as we're talking right now so you understand what's happening. I mean, you could see the shame on some of these cops' faces. This is down over there. You're not here to discuss whether or not they're unconscious. You're just here to do your job, right? Uh-huh. You're not here to discuss whether or not they're unconscious. You're just here to do your job, right? And you're going to enforce that regardless, right? Yeah.

So you're part of the problem, man. I want you to know that. You're part of the problem. You're part of the problem. You're part of the problem. You're part of the problem. Everybody in here of the problem. You're part of the problem. Everybody in here, every one of you, man, what's going on in this country right now? The reason that we're in the situation we're in as the United States of America,

you're part of the problem, sir. So you can't complain about what the president is doing. You can't complain about the state that the country's in right now. You can't, you can't complain about how screwed up it is. You're part of the problem, sir. You're just doing your job. So many people were just doing their job for Hitler back in Germany. You as well, sir. That goes for you as well. That goes for you as well. That goes for all of you. That goes for all of you, man. There's no excuse. There's zero excuse. There's zero excuse.

Just doing my job, that's not an excuse anymore, man. That's not an excuse. And you know what? You know why these cops don't care? Because they know literally nothing will happen. I should say, they think. And maybe the simple reality is just say, first of all, I want to be careful here. I want to make sure I stress this point.

The Covington kids, a video comes out, they accuse these kids of wrongdoing. We don't know for sure. So we have the general story here. This has been an ongoing thing. And the general idea, they shut this guy down over refusing to abide by the unconstitutional mandates. Now the cops, years later, when the mandates aren't in place anymore are coming after him and causing damage to his life i want to make sure we're careful because i'll say this make sure you look into this don't be a knee-jerk reactionary like the leftovers of the covenant kids but assuming all the reporting we have is true then you should simply say to these officers uh you're not welcome in my place of business i don't want you coming around my family. I don't want you in my church. You are evil people.

It's the banality of evil. But Chef Gruel, I mean, you defied, or I should say you spoke out against. So what are your thoughts seeing this story? Well, you know, and I think that's, thank you for kind of clarifying, because you're right. You don't know the backstory here. But just looking at that video in and of itself, I can only imagine that it's nothing too serious. Because number one, if this guy was doing anything that was criminal, he'd be arrested immediately. If he was doing something that was a violative of any health standards, he would be shut down immediately, gas would be cut from his stores,

there would be messaging out there. So assuming that this is the limitations on this, you know, two years previous, I mean, that's just absurd. And the absurdity in general of a lot of these mandates, as I've talked about for the past two years, and I've been punished for doing so, people understand it now, right? So you kind of have this reverse process where now the government, which is typically behind the times, they are so far behind the times that you have all people of both parties looking at the absurdity of what went down during COVID in many cases, not all cases, that making the case that this just shouldn't be happening is a much easier case to make. But yet it's still happening. I cannot I mean, two years later, that is absolutely nuts. And you had mentioned about 10 minutes ago, you said,

you know, it was COVID. And now it's the know, it was COVID and now it's the next thing. I don't think it's the next thing. I think we're in Act No. 417 on COVID. And I think the drama or the tragedy is going to continue forward. And they're going to keep writing sequels to it with COVID being kind of the main hero here. Well, they're going to try to milk this cow as much as they can. But we have to understand, with this particular case, looking into it, there was a long series of court cases. OK. And there was a ruling that came down, which now allowed the government to come in and seize their records and to seize their liquor license.

So this is what happened here. And we have to understand the lunacy that people had to go through within the last few years. How absolutely insane, how absolutely evil it was in California. There was businesses that were padlocked. There was restaurants that were shut down. There was businesses that had electricity cut by the city because they dared to defy their arbitrary lockdown orders. Meanwhile, Walmart was allowed to be open.

Costco was allowed to be open. All these big box stores with connections to politicians, they were able to run their businesses. Police officers came on grandma's door, knocked it down because she dared to keep her business open, even when she had an online business. The stories that happen here in the United States should terrify people because it highlights the story of order followers doing what they're told, committing human rights violations against the people of this country. Real quick, sorry. Matt Strickland, I see an individual, became a member of the channel right now,

and it may be the Matt Strickland who's in this story. So, Matt, if you are listening, I just followed you on Twitter. Shoot me a DM if you want to say anything right now about this subject matter, and we'd love to meet up maybe this weekend, talk about what's going on. But you were saying. Nice. I love that. And that's the beauty of communication right there, if that's the case. I was going to say that some of these stories truly underscore the indifference that government has for people. You say the human rights issues. So if you look in California, they shut down outdoor dining in the December of 2020. 75 degrees and sunny in in California, they shut down outdoor dining in the December of 2020. Okay.

75 degrees and sunny in Southern California. They shut down outdoor dining. And then this was concurrent with the state of California saying, oh, and by the way, you can't get any unemployment funds until January, February, because we've misappropriated $80 billion in unemployment funds. So you shut down outdoor dining. This is the truth of what happened. All these people got fired, like 80% of the restaurant industry in SoCal got fired. Oh, and by the way, it's going into the holidays and Christmas and you have no money because the

unemployment funds aren't available. You had people just left on the streets, which is why we started the fund to raise money. We were driving around the night before Christmas, handing out $500 checks and giving people their rent money because we had to raise the funds as individuals because the government wasn't going to do anything to help these people. Meanwhile, what happened? What was the result of these policies? The rich became richer than they ever have before. It was a policy that committed the largest transfer of wealth from some of the poorest,

some of the most people, some of the few people left in the middle class to the richest billionaires that, of course, were able to keep their online businesses open. They were able to do things that violated health and cold protocols, but that didn't matter. It was essentially a deliberate action. I believe a lot of this was actually done on purpose to shut people down, to make sure that they won't have any wealth with their family members. Yeah, it seems like it's like trying to get back at someone you don't like because they made you angry. But in reality, law enforcement, there's an ethical quality to it. Like if jaywalking is illegal, fine.

If you're out in the middle of the street because there's a little baby laying there and you're jaywalking to get that baby off the road, you're not going to get arrested. You may have jaywalked. They're not going to fine you for that one because you did the right thing in violation of the law sometimes people see the forest through the trees and just because there's a top down creed doesn't mean that you have to fall in line uh so to go after people that stayed open during what they want to call a pandemic in a time that how many people like how much death did keeping that restaurant create open create let's find that out because if so if they're if they if they murdered people with

keep staying open put them in prison but if they didn't what the hell is going on sweden has uh there's a there's a tweet i put out a while ago someone posted the data sweden's all cause mortality or whatever it's called is like lower than most of europe and they had no lockdowns or they had very very very limited restrictions. So we're looking at all this data. You can make an argument for Sweden's weather. They're further north, smaller population, maybe more spread out. But on the surface, you look at the data, and we don't see any strong—I mean, look at Florida.

I mean, Florida didn't lock down. Well, Donald Trump was telling Sweden to lock down, was saying Sweden was going to have a mass casualty event. This was the president of the United States saying this, and he was absolutely wrong on a lot of these things. As his administration started the two weeks to slow the spread nonsense, which, again, was absolutely ridiculous, as the government, their only plan was to give you a $2, thousand dollar check which they couldn't even give you out in a correct way they couldn't even get that right uh but but what did that what did that do that that only indebted this country that only made people more reliant on government and it gave them not even a band-aid it gave them it was like someone was on fire and the government spat on you that's that's exactly what i could

kind of quantify to the government giving you a two thousand dollar check and some of the people were really happy they're like yeah this is it wasn't that money is going to have to be accounted for paid for in some kind of way what we saw with these lockdowns what with these restrictions was essentially the elites playing what everyone's seeing let's see how far we could push this let's see how we could how much we could torture them let's see how far we could push this. Let's see how much we could torture them. Let's see how much we could get away with when it comes to stealing everything from them, including their own businesses. And seeing that

was cruel, and it was evil. I want you guys to remember, when they published videos of a restaurant in, I think it was Leesburg, going outside and grabbing cicadas off the wall, bringing them inside cooking them and serving them to people this was very illegal was a food truck no no it was a brick and mortar place

and then they got told uh they got shut down like you can't sell these cicada tacos anymore because you can't just take bugs off the street and then cook them and feed them to people yep that's what they had people doing remember all of these news stories eat the bugs eat the street and then cook them and feed them to people. That's what they had people doing. Remember all of these news stories? Eat the bugs, eat the bugs. Yeah, that was actually celebrated as being very avant-garde. Did you cook any bugs? No, we don't.

Well, first of all, I think that the idea of cooking cicadas is disgusting. You're a chef. And they're also a derivative of shrimp. So if you have a shellfish allergy and you're out there cooking cicadas to try and be cute, you're going to die if you eat a cicada taco, number one number one number two we don't know where these cicadas have been and if you look at their life cycle actually they're full of toxins but that's okay go ahead and eat the cicadas oh let me just say also this this clear statement shutting down outdoor dining in southern california killed people yes because when because of the fact that people weren't going out and sitting in an outdoor area to go out to eat with their friends and family everybody needs to go out they need that social

time what they did was they had private house parties in small enclosed areas instead elderly people etc and they got coveted and they died eating outside in 75 degree weather we knew scientifically because we all saw the headlines that the protests outdoors were totally safe right remember that yeah totally safe but we shut down outdoor dining people died as a result of that i do not understand the outdoor dining shutdown well why why did they do it they said that well the answer was they said that the image that it gives to people out celebrating and dining outdoors is that it's okay to be outside during covet so you see how this is all about the image the picture picture, the symbolism. And I will give credit to the Orange County Sheriff's

Department and all the police force in Orange County. We did remain open outdoors. And we did, we continued to serve outside. We got a ton of support, our sales were tripled. And the police force said, you're good to go, we're not going to enforce any of these rules. So there are local jurisdictions where there are officers that are standing up and saying, look, we're not going to stand behind these absurd regulations or mandates. And, you know, those are the places you got to seek out and celebrate. It was arbitrary. It was made up. Real quick, Matt just hit me up and he said that he guarantees 1,000%. The only reason they came after him was because he did not follow the COVID mandates.

And, you know, he'd like to come join us and talk about it more. That'd be fantastic. And thanks for hitting me up, brother. I'm sick of seeing this stuff. I'm sick of seeing all of these stories where, you know, we want to come out and be like the defund the police,

like, well, not Luke anyway, but the defund the police stuff goes too far. There's a role for police. The average person who's not an anarchist or hardcore libertarian probably likes the police stuff goes too far there there's there's a role for police the average person who's not an anarchist or or hardcore libertarian probably likes the police but we cannot tolerate the worst accesses of it now i know luke's solution is typically like no it's all bad the police are ineffective they have no incentive to actually provide you a service they have no incentive at all and and majority of crimes go unsolved especially when it comes to to to to

rapes or especially when it comes to homicides especially when it comes to rapes, especially when it comes to homicides, especially when it comes to very serious situations. A lot of the times you're left on your own. So why not just officially be on your own and be prepared to defend yourself? The incentive really for a police officer is to protect his or her community because if your neighbors are getting attacked... Is this what these guys are doing?

Maybe they justify that, but I don't think so. Do you feel protected when you're pulled over by a police officer on a motorcycle that's writing you a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt? Do you feel protected? Yeah, I do. If I don't have a seatbelt, if I'm speeding and I get pulled over, I thank the cop because I'm endangering the community. It looks right. Sorry, man.

No, dude. They're on a motorcycle. That's the point. I had a cop one time. I had my cell phone up to my ear and he pulled me over for having my cell phone up thank you officer i was like oh come on i pointed i was like come on and he went get like like i'm gonna throw you in jail if you do not it's not for your safety it's it's for them to generate revenue for the speeding people speeding are just out there

to kill i don't think people should well hold on someone's speeding like i don't know 20 15 20 miles over i I understand. But Luke's got a good point. Let's break that down. Like, you have to wear a seatbelt in your car, but the cop on a motorcycle is literally just sitting on this thing going 60 miles an hour. You know what I mean? It is silly.

It's not for your safety. Well, I think it is. They'll pull you over. They'll be like, yo, put your seatbelt on, because if someone hits you, you're going to get killed, and I don't want to clean up a bloody body right now. Yeah, but there's better ways of incentivizing those kind of policies but he's on a motorcycle right yes he has to weave through traffic no but like he has to speed up go faster than you are on a motorcycle and and in la it's to get through cars but isn't it like one in like

20 20 to 25 percent of people will suffer some kind of accident on a motorcycle oh dude my dad ran himself over with a motorcycle one time. He slipped over the front and then it went over him. People should be allowed to motorcycle. I got a motorcycle. They're great fun. But there is something that's inherently silly about a motorcycle cop giving a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt. Like, you are safer without the seatbelt

in the car than they are just on the motorcycle following all the regulations. And this is what a lot of the lockdowns were all about. It's all about protecting. It wasn't about protecting anyone. It was literally Dr. Fauci and other health officials who weren't healthy. A lot of them were obese. A lot of them were disgusting.

A lot of them were just absolutely unhealthy beasts sitting there eating their donuts, telling you, hey, you know, we'll give you free donuts if you do this. But you got to also jump through our hoops that we're going to literally make up. The documents came out from the Fauci emails. And a lot of these rules, they're like, hey, where did you think of these six feet? Where did you think of these plexiglass? Where's the science and logic behind it? And they were like, oh, there's none. There's absolutely none of that. It's me just making things up as I go along. And the latest scientific data is highlighting

how a lot of these protocols, a lot of these things actually made the situation that much worse and more people got sick as a result of it. Let me tell you guys a story. I told this before. I was in Frederick, Maryland, and this was during lockdown. It was during mask

mandates and all that stuff. And I went to get sushi. And I was with get sushi and, uh, uh, I was with my girlfriend. We walked into the sushi restaurant. We were standing probably about five or 10 feet from it, from a two person table. And we walked in and I was like two.

And then they looked at me and said, you need to wear a mask. And then I looked around at everyone, everyone aside from the staff, no masks. And I was like, um, excuse me, like nobody's wearing masks. I'm like, well, they're eating. And I was like, excuse me, like nobody's wearing masks. I'm like, well, they're eating. And I was like, oh yes, I'd like to eat as well.

And they said, no, but put a mask on. And I said, are you serious? Like, but they're not wearing masks right now. Like, I'll just sit down. Is that okay? And they're like, no, put the mask on. And then I said, you want me to wear a mask for 10 seconds? Are you serious?

And they all go, everyone turns and goes, yes. And I was like, I'm leaving. Like, what is wrong with their brains? There was 50 people sitting around with no masks on. You know what I thought? You know, I was in Frederick recently. I'm walking around. I got a coffee.

And I thought, I made a mistake that day. You know what I should have done? I should have been like, oh, I'm sorry. i should have taken the mask and just gone like this and just pulled it and held it right in front of my face floating about an inch away and then just you know just just okay i'll sit down you want me to sit down i'll sit down and go okay i should have grabbed a napkin or something at that point just cover your mouth with just put it put your hand over your face what the heck i mean the napkin yeah it's gonna do the same thing your hand in the napkin is gonna do the same thing that a cloth mask would do i thought about that when i was

there and i said you know when you go to west virginia they they did the statewide had mask mandates for stuff but like nobody was really following it it was kind of funny and so i just avoided any place in west virginia that actually had a sign asking for masks i was like this is stupid what did what did your restaurants do if you don't mind me asking and did you guys have to comply with the plexiglass that went up in price very uh significantly during this whole uh shenanigan nonsense uh theater that we had to go through i've got a warehouse full of plexiglass right now i mean it's like i their plexiglass was in such demand i ended up having to meet some guy behind a 7-eleven at 2 30 in the morning bought it out of the back of a cadillac i

mean it was like no i'm kidding but piglass was, it was so hard to get. It was virtually impossible. And we left it up to the consumer and we had people leave because they were like, they're not wearing masks. But we just let people decide what they wanted to do. But now that we're talking about masks, let me throw a couple of facts out there.

3 million masks are discarded worldwide every single minute. Masks are made of polypropylene. All of those masks, all of them end up in the ocean. Guess what polypropylene breaks down into? all of them end up in the ocean guess what polypropylene breaks down into microplastics so in california okay i have to now they are mandating masks again in los angeles so i have to wear a mask recently yeah yeah wow yeah they reinstated the mask so they're mandating masks indoors all right that mask is going to end up in the ocean it's going to be microplastic. It's going to end up in our entire food system, and it's going to kill sea life.

Now, alternatively, if I ask for a straw and a straw is given to me, both me and the person who gave it to me get a fine. If it happens twice, it's criminalized, and you can go to jail for it. So you can't get the straw because you've got to save sea life, but you have to wear the mask to kill sea life. California. I have, maybe this is a hot take, but I think that COVID particularly is spreading and has been spreading through the food supply, not through the air. Or maybe it has been spreading through the air as well.

It's Ian's ice cream theory. No, it's beyond that. Now, from the Daily Mail, as of December 3rd, broccoli and raspberries could give you COVID. Health experts warn after learning the virus can live on popular foods for as long as a week. I think that's a little bit of a fear mongering was detected on peppers ham bread crust and cheese for several days hold on just pull up the story ian's not wrong broccoli and raspberries could go but this is on top of ice cream one it's the daily mail by news

to the title is suggestive saying it could not that it would. It's been found. It's detected COVID on peppers, ham, bread, crust, and cheese. I mean, absolutely. The writing is on the wall. From Newsweek, COVID-19 has now been found in ice cream. This is from January of 21. I think that it lives on food. But they don't want to cause panic. But the thing is that that could be scientifically true,

but we know that COVID is a respiratory, so you have to breathe it in if it lives on the food it's an active culture but if you swallow it then it's killed in your body i think it lives on pineapple pizza i mean you could smell the food really you're saying no one should ever order a pineapple pizza if you smell food that has it on it that's very very important well if i could ask you you just talked a little bit about the regulations in california i couldn't imagine. I think it would be my worst nightmare in my life to open up a business in California. What was it like operating business there? What are some of the more insane regulations

that you have to go through that the people don't know about? Well, keep in mind too, and it's different in different parts of California because everybody's like, why are you still living there? Well, number one, because somebody's got to be fighting in enemy territory.

And number two, there are certain areas where there's reason and there's logic and rationale, Orange County being one of them. Los Angeles is incredibly difficult when it comes to opening a business. But I'll tell this one story, right? So as I had mentioned, I started as a food truck in 2011 and then grew the enterprise. I had no money to start the first brick and mortar. I bought this old bagel shop. It was a hole in the wall, but it was a turnkey situation. The landlord was going to take a chance on me. And I think we ended

up raising like $70,000 to open this. And I had no money after that, not even a penny. Right when we're about to open, we do the kind of final walkthrough with health and they go, where's your grease interceptor? The underground one, right? And I said, oh, well, we're grandfathered in because I bought the lease. It's an above ground one. They said, yeah, but that kind of grandfather piece is going to go away in a couple of years. So just put the underground one. And I'm like, look, I can't. That's $20,000, $25,000. They're like, yeah, we don't care. You got to do it. So I'm about to open. So I have to take out a high interest loan that I paid off like 14 years later at 39% interest compounded every minute. But the point is $25,000 the day before my business

is supposed to open when there wasn't even a specific regulation, it was more just, well, it's going to have to happen, even though we were told everything was going to be okay. That story kind of represents California. Were they expecting a bribe? Because it seems like a lot of mafioso like people run a lot of these regulations, and they kind of expect some money underneath the table, just to not implement made-up nonsense they want to implement. That's more Jersey style. Jersey is, and I'm from Jersey, so I know that. In California, it's just ineptitude.

In California, you're feeding the bureaucracy, and the bureaucracy feeds the bureaucracy. It's kind of like a beast that eats itself. Do you just love it there? Is that why you're still there? It is a beautiful place. My wife was born and raised there and my kids love it. Where are you?

You're in, not Long Beach, near Long Beach? Huntington Beach. It's such an amazing area. I mean, it's gorgeous. It is. Manhattan Beach, Long Beach, Venice, up and down the boardwalk, you can ride your bike. I highly recommend everybody get a chance to visit at some point in their life it's so amazing but why do you hate pineapple pizza uh it's too wet so it drizzles on the pizza i would do like a pineapple salsa with jalapenos to finish the pizza but a roast but roasted and sweet and sticky pineapple releases way too much

moisture and then it kills the dough if it sits there too long. What if the pineapple's diced up super fine? Well, in the form of like a salsa that hasn't been cooked, because then it won't release all that moisture. What about dehydrated pineapple? Too much work? No, actually, I like that. This could be the compromise that people have been asking for. You know, it's funny, I did.

I said I would never eat pineapple pizza, and I forget what it was about. And then Newsmax reached out to me and said, well, you said you wouldn't if X happened, so we want to do a live shot of you eating pineapple pizza on TV. So we actually did it. That was the second time and last time I'll eat pineapple pizza. Do you use seed oils? I try not to, although seed oils are hidden in a lot of different places.

They're everywhere. That's where I go back to the omega-6s. So seed oils are bad because you have this imbalance of omega-6 fatty acids that leads to inflammation and hypertension and a lot of other issues. So if you actually eat more seafood, you can theoretically balance out that inflammation and have a couple seed oils. Sorry. What about all the gluten stuff, right?

You know, a lot of people don't want to eat it. I've actually, you know, so I cut out sugars about a year. It's been like a year now. It's crazy. I can't believe how long it's been. Yeah. And I lost a lot of weight, but I cut out rice too. And I've been adding, so I went like way down to like no carbs.

Then I sort of tried things. I remember like Michaela Peterson and Jordan Peterson were talking about eating nothing but meat. And they said, well, at the very least, it's an elimination diet. You get rid of everything and then slowly try things and see which one bothers you. And ultimately, what I found is it's not so much eating sugar, too much obviously messes me up. But on the days that I'll eat bread, the next day, I feel foggy and groggy. Yeah, I mean, it all affects you. 90% of your neurotransmitters are in your intestines, right? So obviously what we eat is related to our brains. That's why people with irritable bowel syndrome take your antidepressants as well. And there's been something happening within our food industry that is absolutely incredibly worrisome, especially when it comes

to chronic diseases that are becoming more and more common. Obesity rates have gone up 30% in the last 20 years. Meanwhile, our calorie intake didn't really change that much. So people have to start asking themselves, what in the world is really going on here? What do you make of all this? What do you think from being inside the industry is responsible for a lot of this? Yeah, it's what the food is made up of. It's obviously the food deserts too. You look in a lot of these inner cities, they have no access to whole foods, real foods. So they're eating empty calories. So even if you look at it on a calorie by calorie basis, there's superfoods and there's effective calories, and then there's just kind of empty calories that then ultimately affect the mind, which is probably what you were feeling the next day. And that's a common feeling. I think that people come

down on this notion, this gluten-free movement as being just this kind of California hippie left-wing thing. I think there is a genuine issue in our food system that's leading people to have more sensitivity to gluten. What it is, I mean, I could be conspiratorial and I could pin it to certain vaccines or I could just say it's the preponderance of hidden chemicals in our food, specifically glyphosate. I'm sure you guys have talked about that. Oh, yeah, all the time. They use it as a desiccant on wheat If your wheat's not organic What they'll do is they'll spray it on there Throughout the course of the wheat's life To prevent, I think it's a fungicide

Or is it an herbicide? It's an herbicide Roundup Yeah, to make sure It's Bill Gates' favorite pesticide But then they go in right before they're about to harvest it And to dry out the wheat They hit it with Roundup again as a desiccant

And then they harvest it really quick That's disgusting And now Bill Gates is making super glyphosate As of course the glyphosate And the bacteria resistance is starting to build up against it and not being as effective. So now they're doing a stronger version of glyphosate. And this is the latest corn video that Bill Gates kind of rolled out there recently with him sucking down on the corn cob. And with children, you know, dancing and singing behind the scenes. You know what they originally used glyphosate for?

It started in the Reagan administration, and they actually were using it. They would spray Colombian cocaine farms with the glyphosate to kill it. And then it would, sadly, it would leach into the water system, would leach into the surrounding communities, which were like smaller communities or indigenous communities. And then they saw 10, 15 years years later a lot of those people started developing different cancers and all these health ailments but it was used by the u.s government to stop it was part of the drug war yeah now it's in all of our food yeah i'd rather have the cocaine

in our food yeah as well come on coke there was who was it was it elon musk who tweeted that yes he did. Yeah. Bring back Coke to Coke. Buy Coke to put the cocaine back in it. There's another chemical. I don't want to talk right now. There's a whole bunch of garbage that they put in our food, and everybody eats it.

That's another thing, too. We have these glass bottles. We have a bunch of those plastic water bottles I see you're drinking over there, but we also have uh we started buying a bunch of glass bottles to get away from the plastic ones because of the phthalates the the pcbs with the p the pfas or whatever there's just like it's crazy i kind of feel like we look back on history and we're like did you know they used to drink mercury to to deal with syphilis or whatever in 50 to 100 years they're gonna be like could you imagine they were actually using plastic for their food how messed up is that it's such a good point you are entirely correct we will so much of what we're doing right now we're going to look back on and be like isn't that crazy which is funny because during covid everything was just agreed upon as

pure fact you can't question it trust the science okay so let's start well i just want to bring up one more point, especially when it comes to microplastics that are now being found in people's lungs and blood. This is something that, of course, is also a huge disruptor of your hormone system. And this is why a lot of people think that sperm levels and testosterone levels have gone down so much dramatically within the last few years. Is there, I mean, there's no way of stopping it. China just keeps getting all the plastic, dumping it into the ocean. The United States just essentially just started doing the same thing. The masks, again, lots of plastic just being thrown out there, people breathing it in, sucking all the plastic down there. Is there a way of even avoiding this plastic? I mean,

we try to do, you know, glass bottles, but at the same time, everything else is in plastic. All the food is wrapped in plastic. All the cookware is laced with plastic. All the things are nonstick plastic. Is there a way of avoiding any of this craziness? Because I'm just looking at everything that's happening. I'm like, there's no way of stopping it.

Dude, I mean, I use bamboo to cook my food, et cetera etc and you can use like a skillet you know you can there's things you can do that are like well yeah i have a cast iron skillet as well but then you know the food comes packaged in plastic right that's true no i don't understand don't understand you know am i being too paranoid here or do you like what are you seeing from your observation you know i don't know um in terms of where it's coming from in that particular scenario right so if we have all these microplastics that are in our lungs how that's we're breathing that in so is that does that come from food does it come from cooking does it come from heat i just i have no idea i mean it's clearly it's an issue um but it's you know it's one of those issues

that's used as a hammer in certain circumstances and ignored in other circumstances. I'll put it this way, Luke. We used to have to go to farms. I believe it was, what, like 100 years ago, the average family owned a cow or something like that. Cows were very common. A family would have the family cow. When you wanted meat, there wasn't plastic, but you had to go to a farm. You had to go to a butcher.

You can still do those things. It's just that there's a convenient location with plastic-wrapped food for you. And so we just choose to go to a farm you to go to a butcher you can still do those things it's just that there's a convenient location with plastic wrapped food for you and so we just choose to go there but look man we're lucky out here maybe even like five miles away there's a farm a farm stand it's a little building and when you when you go in there and get the meat it's it's in like wax paper it's in like you know deli wrapped wax paper and then they hand it to you it's frozen and you bring it home and you you peel the sticker it's paper open it up farm fresh meat right there on the spot nope no plastics grass-fed good stuff a lot of the papers have plastic in them a lot of the receipts have plastic in them my dream now is to have a cow sorry ian you had something else you wanted i'm

wearing plastic glasses on my face it's pretty gross probably leeching into my head as i'm speaking i've been thinking that a little esoterically like if the earth is an organism and they say like it'll if it doesn't like the life on it it'll kill it all with like a flood like it'll flood itself and wipe out all the life that's been poisoning its surface or it'll bring an asteroid a meteoroid or something i think also what the earth would do this is obviously it's kind of somewhat silly to think of the earth as a living organism but let's's just say it is, that it would wipe out humanity by making it sterile. And we're kind of doing that to ourselves with plastics and hormones and chemicals, herbicides in our water supply.

It's decreasing the fertility rates. And so it's another way to wipe out a species is through infertility. I'd never thought of that before. We don't need a flood or an asteroid this time. We just got to be really careful about what we consume. But I mean, good question luke i think maybe the future is graphene getting away from these weird oil-based carbons and trying to make something a little more stable like diamond packaging what if graphene is worse than all the other plastics and leaches even more and then goes

into our bloodstream you got to find ways for it not to leach that's key like i don't know if you had like like malleable diamond plastic like if it was like diamond pure carbon and it was like crumpleable diamond if that would not leach i mean i think you could find ways to not leach could we be proactive though and actually make the packaging out of testosterone oh something edible or like vitamin c we're thinking on the defense here we gotta be we gotta there's a there's a store uh not far away from here that the they print their receipts on like vitamin c receipts and there's no plastics so vitamin c yes vitamin c uh moms moms supermarket do that yeah the the receipts are not made out of plastic they're like hey we

have vitamin c uh um receipts here you can eat it um i asked them if i could they're like no but uh you know the plastic especially from the receipts, does leach, does have chemicals They're like, yes, eat your purchase record, and we'll see if we let you out of the store. But every time I'm there, I'm like, hey, this is pretty cool that you guys are doing this, and it's pretty awesome. Aren't the receipts particularly bad, or do they have cancer-causing chemicals in them? Is that the reason why? Well, they're made out of plastic that leaches.

Right. I got to see some documents on this vitamin C receipt because this is sounding cool. Yeah, I've never heard of that. You got to show up to Mom's supermarket and they're pretty legit. I'm reading about them right now. Isn't it like a huge chain, Mom's? I think so. They're pretty great, though.

Yeah. I like going there. I got farm fresh cream for my coffee. Real grass-fed stuff. Expires real quick like it's supposed to. So just to ask you, because you're in the food industry, did you notice the level of food kind of going down throughout the last few years? Like, do you see the quality being an issue? Or, you know, what's the kind of inside baseball when it comes to procuring a lot of food for your restaurants?

Yeah, well, the trajectory has already been on a downward spiral, just in general, in terms of quality of food. And it follows the quality of everything, right? But since the pandemic, yeah, it's gotten really bad because number one, the supply chain issues, number two, our relationship with China. And I think people don't realize how much we rely on other countries for our food. So our food system is not just incredibly vulnerable and it's not domestic, but it's also, I mean, it's questionable when you're getting food from another place that you don't know how they're harvesting, raising, rearing, the husbandry behind their food. So yeah, the answer is, of course, take the extra time. That's a great point that Tim makes is that if you take the extra time, you actually can go find that butcher, that fishmonger, whoever it is, to actually try and understand where your food is coming from. I know it sounds like a cliche. From a wholesale perspective, it's much easier for me as a restaurateur because I can kind of cut out a couple kinks in that chain of custody. But consumers can do that too. And this is the point I've been making since inflation has gotten so bad. It's incumbent upon consumers to create a relationship with a restaurateur. Not just this isn't kind of self-fulfilling here, because then you can piggyback on their orders and their products.

I love it when customers come to me and say, hey, can you throw five extra pounds on the order of broccoli that you're getting? And then I buy more, which gives me better economies of scale. My customer gets raw products at a much lower value, which puts more money in their pockets that they hypothetically could spend at my restaurant or another community restaurant. I mean, that's the notion of comparative advantage. And what that's doing is actually cutting out the Walmart to the world. It's cutting out a lot of these other businesses. I think someone should develop an app to facilitate customers piggybacking off of restauranteurs' purchases.

I completely agree. Well, there's also a lot of monopolies that I think cause a lot of problems in the industry. I think it's estimated that there's only 10 companies that produce 90% of the food in the United States. And when you have so many few big multinational industries controlling a lot of this, many times profit is incentivized over, of course, offering a product that's actually good or healthy or actually going to be helping people in the long term, because a lot of the times it's not incentivized to do so. And I think also behind the scenes, there's a bigger agenda to try to poison people with

the release of glyphosate, with the release of seed oils, making them a lot cheaper with government subsidies, knowing that the end result will be more unhealthy people, which will be dependent on government. And therefore, government is doing this, according to my own personal opinion. Isn't the overwhelming majority of food from Cisco, all these restaurants? Yeah, Cisco U.S. Foods, they're two of the biggest players out there. Actually, their merger was broken down by an antitrust lawsuit, which is surprising, but then it would have been just one behemoth running all the food. But how does that work? What does Cisco do? Are they a distributor?

They're a wholesaler and a distributor, so what they're going to do is they're going to aggregate all the food. But how does that work? What does Cisco do? Are they a distributor or are they like? They're a wholesaler and a distributor. So what they're going to do is they're going to aggregate all the products and then they're going to distribute it to all the restaurants, venues, you name it. So it's just massive purchasing power. Wow. Yeah. I mean, it is huge. And it's, for me, you know, when it comes to trying to grow a business and scale good,

I consider what we were doing from a sustainability perspective a good business. And using the little guys, because we mandated that as part of our franchise system, it was virtually economically impossible to do so and to avoid the Ciscos and the U.S. foods of the world. And ultimately, my franchisees ended up using those guys, and I couldn't stop them from using it because you can't force them to lose money right and then the big guys win they always do what's this new lawsuit you said if your franchisee does something elite like i didn't get the full story but what is it it's uh it's called the joint employer it's called the joint employer rule and it was actually set forth during the obama administration it was overturned during the trump administration and then it was put back in place um under the new biden administration and what it basically conjectures is that if you are a franchisor, let's say I sell a franchise to you, you're all the way out here, you're running the franchise, and you're

mistreating your employees. I've just licensed you my brand. I don't run your business. You run your business. I have absolutely nothing to do with it. Let's say you short pay one of your employees, your employee sues you. They sue me too. I'm in the lawsuit, even though I have nothing to do with it. It pierces that corporate veil between the franchisee and the franchisor, giving responsibility to the bigger guy. That doesn't sound like a functional system. Yeah. And originally it was set forth by McDonald's. It was a McDonald's lawsuit because they said that McDonald's was trying to stop the unions from working with local franchisees and then there was a lot of issues and lawsuits they went after whoever the had the

biggest oh okay so certain level of corporations well anyway that's an interesting conversation do you how did you guys navigate like because you said 2011 is when you opened your first food cart and so 11 years later you got 60 60 restaurants uh so it was yeah 10 years later we had 40 a couple different how did you create such explosive growth was it my my hopefully what you're going to say is good ingredients but tell me about like what did you prioritize to get there well actually it was pretty simple formula so what we said is my the whole entire mission was to get people to eat more seafood but more the right types of seafood so we were sourcing 100 percent sustainably caught raised farmed seafood and then all of our ingredients we were sourcing 100% sustainably caught, raised, farmed seafood. And then all of

our ingredients, we were the first four-star green certified restaurant. We were actually kind of at the forefront of green. So I'm like that kind of weird hippie space. But we sent that, we stuck with our message. We were true to it. We weren't greenwashing. 90% of the businesses now that use all that language, they're not true to it. We were true to it. We weren't greenwashing. 90% of the businesses now that use all that language, they're not true to it. We're true to it. And sustainability tastes better, right? And that's what people need to realize is that higher quality when it comes to food and sustainability, it does actually taste better.

And that was it. I mean, it's a real simple formula. Just serve good food. I'll say one thing. You know, Papa John's better ingredients. The company did Papa John john dirty but actually look at their ingredients and it's it's true and i you know i love this i looked at the the ingredients for like pizza hut their crust has splenda in it yeah yeah why and then you look at domino's

and domino's isn't as bad but they've got you like you'll see like words you can't pronounce but then you look at like papa john's and it's like whole wheat, water, yeast, you know, the sauce, tomatoes, sugar, you know, the cheese, part skim milk, whatever. It's like, wow, really is like very, very basic stuff. We got these protein bars, the Epic, uh, Epic protein bars. It's just meat. You got them because the ingredients, it's like beef, garlic, paprika. And then the only thing that's weird is like the lactic acid thing. I'm like, I know what that is.

It doesn't freak me out. And it's like, it's pretty good stuff, man. You hear about it. We got to go to Super Chance. Sorry, I cut you off. We're going to go to Super Chance. If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends and become a member at TimCast.com.

We're going to have a members only uncensored show for you tonight. You don't want to miss it. Let's read some of these messages. Daybob says, please get Gormelt's owner that was raided Friday. He actually sent me a message. We read it on the show. He sent me another message. So I'll be in touch and that'll be really great.

All right. Max Reddick says, Tim, I hear a lot of people on the left saying the DHS colluding with Big Tech started under the Trump administration as a gotcha. Thoughts? I'm pretty sure it did, didn't it? Yeah. He passed the law that allowed the DHS to do a lot of this stuff.

To form CISA. He passed the directive, yeah. And then it came back to haunt him. Yeah. What a funny thing for Republicans to keep doing these things. Yeah, and, you know, also the gain-of-function work

that Donald Trump approved that was banned under Obama. Yeah, that really did have an effect here. All right. Uplift Actual says, Trump's post was taken out of context. He was saying, if the establishment can do the things they do, they will terminate rules, regulations, and amendments, including the ones in the Constitution.

We didn't go over this story today. This is where Trump said something about. Well, we can talk about this one for the members only because we, you know. What was the quote exactly they're referencing, Donald Trump? It's a long quote. I wouldn't be able to just read it off of my head, but it was something to the effect of, you know, the rules being changed or something. All right. Amisong says,

Cosmic Garth seems more like a bard to me. Yeah, sometimes I feel like that myself. Thank you. Also a charismatic sorcerer that uses a musical instrument to empower their spells. Bard. Or even to cast them. Culture Abduction says,

I have a friend who lives in the area where the substation is in North Carolina and he's chilling because he has chickens. He's actually, he's chilling because he has chickens. He's actually bragging about it. Well, you know, chickens are legit. They can handle the cold weather. They do their own thing.

They make more of themselves. That's the crazy thing. You get some chickens, you put them out there, food and water, they make more of themselves. And then you eat the extras. It's fantastic. And you eat their butt bounty it's fantastic and you eat their butt bounty wonderful butt bounty just clean the poop off yeah you know what i really love i

especially love chicken dishes that have chicken and egg like pod tie because there's something just like very like apex predator about that yeah right we're eating your egg and you with the same thing it's kind of crazy max reddick says tim i turned 30 on the 22nd of this month what's the likelihood as a member that i could come on the show to make my birthday wish come true or name a price probably not likely at all dude sorry to say it happy birthday happy birthday though especially all the security stuff going on we it's just getting crazy out here man hey i'm 32 shouts out dude mr brightside is it mr brightside says is yay punk rock for offending everyone yes he is yeah yeah um i don't know if i mean if he actually believes this stuff

then it's not really punk rock if he's just trying to shock the system then okay but um didn't sid sid vicious he wore a swastika all the time or something like that yeah yeah but it was different than it was trying to i mean mean, that's where the whole God save the Queen thing, and they were saying, you know, to hell with that, basically. Paige Young says, did Ye just get suspended on Twitter? No, he was suspended last week. There you go. For posting a picture.

I don't know. I thought he was going to get suspended for saying that he was going to let Milo and Nick use his Twitter account. I don't know if there's ever confirmed that he did that, but that's a ban evasion if he did that. Raymond G. Stanley Jr. says, Tim, we needed your 4 p.m. video. The truth is the truth. Yes, I'm optimistic we're moving in the right direction, but it's still going to be an uphill battle.

Yeah, basically at 4 p.m. I talked about similar things. You know, Elon saying he's fearing for his life, talked about what happened here. And, you know, the general idea was around like i don't know 2 30 i was on a phone call with a lawyer and i'm asking him like what is the legal remedy to all of these things and they were like nothing there isn't one you know it's like they give you the run around they say look here's what we can do for you i'm like you can't do anything you literally can do nothing there's no civil action there's no criminal action the government has become completelyotent, or they've always been, as Ian pointed out earlier.

They've always been. Maybe they've never actually been able to deal with crime. It really is the threat of force that keeps us safe, not the actual. Ideally, there is none. No force being implicated. And what I think is when Antifa ran amok, smashing stuff, burning things down and murdering people, the veil shattered. And now all of a sudden, criminals are just like, nothing matters. It's a lot of times why regimes will do huge crackdowns

if there's even an inkling of an uprising because you do it hard and fast and then they stop is the idea because you can't handle a big, wide spread uprising. Nobody can. Nervous Sip says, for the love of everything, McDonald's burgers are not pre-made. It takes them 30 seconds to assemble. Wrong! I'm not saying they get them

out of a freezer box with the thing. I'm saying when you walk into McDonald's, there's a rack with heat lamps and the burgers are sitting in it already. What they'll do is they'll make us, there are certain burgers that sell very quickly, like Big Macs. They'll make it, usually sells within a minute or two. The point is if Donald Trump were to go into McDonald's and say, I would like one Big Mac, make it the biggest, the biggest Mac, then someone's going to take, oh, I would like one Big Mac, make it the biggest, the biggest Mac, then someone's gonna take, oh, I'll make us a Big Mac for him and spit on it. But if he walks in, and under the

heat lamp is a burger that had been made before he walked in, then he gets a burger made to standard. That's how it goes. Kalkai says, the Earth cannot be determined to be flat because you are too small. A sufficiently relativistic small object in a large sphere observes degenerate geometry. The sphere turns into a flat object. Appreciate it.

Was it because we would fly off? Is that what he said? I didn't understand. No, no, no, because... You offended Ian with that comment. Yeah. Sergeant Bucks says, I run a catering company in Washington.

Lockdown rules were borked. Weddings could be up to 200 people, six feet apart, but if food was available, the cap was 50. Local chains were cleared to do delivery, but I was told to close up shop. Maybe when you look at these things,

you realize it clearly wasn't about COVID. It was about limiting human expansion and consumption. And then the New York Times wrote an article saying the earth is healing. Then they started talking about climate lockdowns to save the planet. And the rest is history. What happened in hospitals and funerals was absolutely inhumane.

The way people were pushed away from their family members when they were leaving this earth, when, when people were trying to hug each other during a funeral, there's people screaming at them. That was evil, absolutely evil. What we saw and went through.

David Todd says, Tim, if you read tweet 21 and 22 together, I believe Matt Taibbi's no government involvement portion is specifically about Twitter using the hacked materials policy to censor. Essentially, the government never confirmed it was hacked for Twitter to use that policy. I see what you're saying. However, if the DHS and FBI reached out to Twitter and said specifically, hey, hacked materials are coming with Hunter Biden involvement, and then they started censoring that, that is direct and overt government involvement, and that information was available. That's correct. It's a home invasion. So my home was invaded this morning. I was not there. You know, keep them guessing. They're posting an address claiming it's my house.

It's not my house. They're posting a picture that, heavens, it's not. It's not even the same address they're posting, so these people are stupid. But, you know, I worry for the people who come to these places. We have armed security. Please do not show up here under any circumstances without authorization. That's just plain and simple, man. Yeah, it's a bad idea.

Very bad. Jen Desai says, Miranda Devine at New York Post reported FBI was monitoring Giuliani's emails in regards to the laptop, which led them to monitor her emails. She has the most extensive reporting on the laptop from hell. We've read a lot about it, man. Yeah. What do we have here?

Cal is back saying, those who conduct violence in the name of someone else's free speech should be the definition of hate speech. There's nothing forcing you to listen to an individual. Extra punishment for criminals. Well, there you go. No criminals.

All right, where are we at? TD says the fbi spied on julianne's cloud shop owner gave laptop to g elon don't want to be seth rich i'm from frederick hope y'all hit up spook hill i don't know what that is i don't that is and it's epstein sorry that's elon didn't want to be epstein although uh there is a possibility you know the seth rich verb may work they said it was a robbery gone wrong or something to that effect and um you know completely unrelated seth rich just you know just so you know one way they could get rid of someone is to do a staged robbery you know and then they could just be like it was a robbery robberies happen you know completely unrelated seth can just be like, yeah, it was a robbery, robberies happen, you know, completely unrelated to Seth Rich. Anyway,

and I mean it literally, I'm just saying, you know, just, you know, or Epstein. There's many ways to do it. There is.

There's many ways for people to, or a heart attack gun, as Luke mentioned. Yeah, it's been around for a long time. you know, unrelated. Or just making me hate reality enough

that I do it to myself. Oh, well, you see, we have that other story, you hear about what's going on in Canada. Some Paralympian called the government being like, I need a stair lift, and, you see, we have that other story. You hear about what's going on in Canada. Some Paralympian called the government being like, I need a stair lift.

And they're like, we can kill you. They offered her medical assistance in dying instead of just getting her the wheelchair lift for her stairs. Yeah, amazing. We've hit a new level. Yeah. Yeah.

Those that want to be here are the ones that will be here. In Germany, they have a similar policy, but you need to be vaccinated in order to be... Wait, what? Yes. Yes, I saw that to be vaccinated in order to be euthanized. Wait, what? Yes. Yes, I saw that.

It's too dangerous otherwise. I tweeted it today. It was an article from 2021. Yep. In Germany, if you want to be euthanized, you have to be vaccinated first. I think there are people whose brains stopped working or maybe never worked at all. They say that the death would be so much worse if you weren't vaccinated. There's a lot of jokes that can make it that would get us in trouble that i'm not gonna say here in canada they they send you a device yeah they send you a medical assistance and dying device

yeah that's wild and then you like i guess get at your house and let them know it's happening and then you kill yourself and they come collect the body or something hey it's north america we like that diy you know that's crazy man allahad says tim please give this 20 to ian he's the best part of irl makes listening to such heavy topics easier no ian we peeing remember rolling a 20 in a vacuum is there no joy it's all about friendship it's about people seeing you roll that 20 that's what it's all about that's true if you're sitting in your room and you roll the 20-sided and got a 20, you'd look around and if a 20-sided die is rolled in an empty game shop, was the 20 rolled at all? Good question. No, that's actually a really good point about humanity in general.

Everything we do, Jeremy Boring was talking about this when he was on the show. Everything we do is for the human experience. So without humans, what's the point of anything we do? So what you do is for humans someone needs to tell bill gates that immediately bill we need to listen to this now mit fomo 2 says eat more seafood i love that that's awesome whenever i get a steak they do the scalps on the side you can get the i've been accompaniments i've been so concerned with mercury that i have avoided bottom feeding seafood

lobster shellfish i mean all shellfish bottom feeders essentially i would say sardines are some of the most healthiest uh things you can have but what what do you think is the most healthiest seafood you can have uh sardines and oysters okay but if you're thinking of mercury just look at the trophic scale think of the high the high predators because they eat down the trophic scale so anything small medium- fish, no traceable levels of mercury. Anything on the higher end, yes, they're going to have more traceable levels of mercury. But who's eating swordfish every single night?

What's that called? Tuna. Tuna also is pretty big and pretty massive. People don't understand how huge tuna is. Wild Pacific albacore tuna, they reproduce at six months and they have no traceable levels of mercury. They're beautiful locally caught U.S. wildfish. See, I just love sardines and oysters but uh it's called bioamplification when a animal eats another animal and gets all its bioaccumulation there's uh scams where you try to order fresh

salmon and you'll say you want like wild you want wild salmon right from you know alaskan or whatever and what they do is they have like brand labels wild brand or something like that and you're actually getting farmed salmon that's named wild salmon not really yeah dude that's crazy i know yeah that's right so i i i could tell you a story about that but i don't want to upset any sponsors but i will say this um that there is a something called stock fortification where you actually will start fish in hatcheries and release it into wild. It was originally established by the government in order to help stocks that were declining. And there are a lot of fisheries that fortify their stocks, release it into the wild,

and then legally you can label it as wild. So it's kind of a controversial subject, but they do. I would say upwards of 80% of salmon is mislabeled in the restaurant industry you know have you heard of iron fertilization are you familiar with the tech the technology they they pick iron oxide dust and put it in the ocean and then it causes plankton to bloom because plankton uses the iron oxide and then it's all this fish the plankton is fish food huge regrowths of fish the fish populations re-bloom if you really want wild salmon if you really want to help the environment you'd be doing that instead of uh all the other wacky stuff that they're

trying to propose because when you look at that solution what you mentioned it's the end-all be-all when it comes to bringing life back to the oceans the earth does it to itself you see the river of blood in antarctica it's this iron just just iron water is just flushing into the ocean because it looks like it's preparing to flood itself so it wants to iron up the water so that we can have plankton and fish. Yeah, what you brought up is key and important for a lot of people to pick up. Beavis McLean says,

Tim, you are right in pushing back against police who do not respect the Constitution. I do have an idea that will help expose corruption with the police departments. However, I'll have to hire Ian as a tech consultant.

Let me know if you're interested. That's a very, very, very big ask. What's the, I don't know, what's the data? Hit me on Twitter or on Mines. I don't want to get involved in any legal disputes right now. Aaron Brand says, hope all is okay. Keep on. Everybody is fine after the incident in the morning.

Nobody got hurt. Not even the bad guys. And, you know, I had a bunch of people messaging me or like tweeting at me being like, you shouldn't have missed. And I was like, i wasn't there um but there is a very serious question about the you know the legal issues surrounding it surrounding it and i think you just don't mess around if someone breaks into your house especially with all the threats we've been getting no one here should be assuming that the person breaking in has good intentions you know is that what's the protocol a home defense protocol is it different

in every state every community like you warn them you like retreat it is different everywhere um west virginia has some of the best laws uh i know texas has good laws florida does new jersey has like some of the worst yeah surprisingly not the worst uh maryland is better than new jersey in most states you know with new jersey what i was told by the cops is that if someone breaks in and you kill them you will be arrested and charged with their murder like there's no question like unless you're a special person and you know but they were like the uh castle doctrine idea this is is an affirmative defense so after you're you're arrested and charged you can plead to the court i was defending myself granted it really depends on the cops too it's the political climate i think with a place like

new jersey a criminal could be breaking into your house they could be a convicted rapist and if you killed them a bunch of activists would show up saying you didn't have to and then you get arrested and that's just how it's gonna that's how it'll go down west virginia on the other hand someone breaks into your house they're just gonna be like who in their right mind would break into a house in west virginia yeah i don't even want to step on people's property without them knowing i'm there oh yeah you just don't i don't so west virginia is not the craziest place you can't just like kill a random person who's on your property but um you have a lot more legal protections if they're on your property and threatening you in some way right whereas in

maryland if they enter your property you have no grounds whatsoever to defend yourself in any capacity until you retreat to your home right and then once you're in your home if they try to break in then you if just trying to break in so if they try and jiggle the handle uh-uh they shoulder the door now you're you're entitled to uh i don't know i'm not a lawyer this is just what i was reading on the internet which is probably not true so i'll just make sure that's clear so this is a another thing about the south african situation is there's a duty to retreat laws in south africa as well so if the person's in your house but they're not making any threat on your life directly you're still unable to stop or impede them from doing what they're doing it's uh it's wild if personal family stories about that

but i won't say anything rest in peace opa but but isn't doesn't that just result in everyone yelling he's coming right for me and you know before they uh yeah but it's it's why they hire private security in the first place i don't i don't know if this is true or not but i remember reading a story about how like in china if you injure someone you're on the hook for the rest of their lives so they'll just murder the person so like if someone is driving their car and they hit a person they'll go oh crap go out and just murder them yes for sure yeah because you have a there's a duty you can't go if you're if someone's injured or dies while they've been injured and you were part of like their safety or like helping them out it would be like oh you were the person who caused their death because

the story is that like you're you're driving your car and you hit somebody now their legs are broken you are on the hook for life yes for their financial problems even so even if you even if you were trying to help somebody that's been injured and when you go and try and help them and offer them assistance anyway you're now tied into it right because of that they'll so nobody helps and then someone so like someone will hit someone with a car and then go well better kill them yes there was that horrible video that went viral like six months ago of the girl that got run over in china and and it went for like five minutes of just everyone walking by, driving by. There's compilation videos of that

just happening over and over and over again. Just like horrible things and people just ignoring it. Because Chinese law is if they get involved and they touch the person which then breaks their ankle a little bit more, they're now responsible for it. That's what it sounds like. Yeah, I didn't know that. I actually watched that video hoping it was fake.

Only to find out it wasn't. And I i needed a reason right because we do when you're not like that and now you just explained that must be why it's written into the law yeah there's no good there's no good samaritan law if you help out and they die and they're injured anyway you're on the hook for life it's crazy well full sense it says fbi goes after people for justice that citizens don't the fbi likes when right-wingers are gone after and they like when right-wingers retaliate so they do nothing i'm sure some fbi guys are okay yeah i think so i think there's some but i think at the highest level they're just they're never going to do it you know they're never going to do

their job yeah it's just all nonsense. There you go. Your blood would curdle if you knew what was going on behind the scenes, what we can and can't talk about. All right. Sean says, I followed the food pyramid diet and cardio for years and couldn't lose weight. I gave high-fat diet and one high-intensity workout a week

a try and lost over 100 pounds. The experts are killing us. Holy crap, man. That food pyramid is one of the biggest lies ever. and one high-intensity workout a week at try and lost over 100 pounds. The experts are killing us. Holy crap, man. That food pyramid is one of the biggest lies ever. It's an economic model. It tells you to eat a big old bowl of pasta, like just a ton of carbs. It's freaking nuts. It is an economic model.

Yeah, it's an economic model. It was meant to allow the U.S. to produce more corn and more wheat in order to grow the economy at the time when it was first instated. It has nothing to do with health, and I know that because I have an econ first instated has nothing to do with health and i know that because i have an econ degree it's nothing to do with food or health whatsoever the craziest thing is i did this this calculator it was like a it was like a how much protein should i eat calculator and it said that i should be eating 400 carbs per day and like 63 grams of protein and i was like that sounds insane i've been eating i've been eating like 40 to 50 carbs no not even that much i think today i probably had about 30 carbs and i feel like a million bucks 30 grams yeah i was skating i posted

i posted a clip to instagram of me just skating you look good that was a big improvement from two years ago i just i saw it and i realized i hadn't seen you skate in a while uptake what uh what how do you get your carbs uh i had lobster biscuit had cane sugar in it not not too happy about that because it definitely did not need it lobster Lobster biscuit is creamy and delicious. The tomatoes have sugar already. And I looked at the back and I saw how many carbs were in it. And I was like, yeah, do you guys? Whole foods, man.

What are you doing? Do you use alternate? 50 carbs in this thing of lobster biscuit. Do you use different kinds of sugars? Like what kind of sugars do you guys use? Yeah, I'll use natural sugars. I mean, I like monk fruit sugar. But normally, as you say, I mean, food, tomatoes, right?

Foods have enough sugar in them. And when it comes to seafood, lobster is naturally sweet. Same with scallops. That's why scallops taste like candy. Best thing ever is angels on horseback, scallops wrapped in bacon. That's why people love sweet and, you know, kind of smoky and salty and meaty. I like buttering my steak. Yeah.

Yeah. I didn't know that was a thing until Luke did it. And I was like, what are you putting butter on? He's like, yeah. And I was like, yeah. And I asked the waiter did it and i was like what are you putting butter he's like yeah and i was like oh yeah yeah i asked the waiter i was like am i supposed to but he's like yes and then i was like oh my god i was like butter on my steak well compound butter is what like i try and give these simple ways to make your food that much better if you actually just take your butter put it at room temperature throw in dijon mustard sherry vinegar fresh herbs garlic and some shallots whatever your other favorite ingredients are put it back in the

fridge throw that compound butter on all your food throw it in your cereal heck why not could herbs, garlic, and some shallots, whatever your other favorite ingredients are. Put it back in the fridge. Throw that compound butter on all your food. Throw it in your cereal. Heck, why not? Could we go to the kitchen after the show and do the after show in the kitchen? Seriously, let's get one of the cameras and let's record something in the kitchen. Let's cook something.

I'll just pull open the fridge and whatever is there, we'll create a meal out of it. I got raw milk. I got beef liver. I got a whole bunch. I got tallow. I got actual liver. I got a whole bunch. I got tallow. I got actual butter. We can make something happen. You have beef liver, huh? Do you have steroids?

No. We got a bunch of fresh eggs from chickens' butts. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. With the poop still on them. Yeah, yeah. Legit. Yeah, the poop is still there. But yeah, in response to the food pyramid, it's almost as if the government wants you fat and unhealthy. Whether or not we make cooking tonight, which I'm open to,

we should do a collaboration in the future and do some badass cooking. The after show, grab the camera, go to the kitchen, open the fridge. You guys are bears. Let's go from there. Well, you're expanding your culture content, and food is love. Everybody loves food. Unification. But since it's my idea i get to eat it

we got to see if sure we could that'd be great actually be very uh fun we can see if there's a camera available uh i guess people who are listening put one in the chat if you want to see uh if you're down to like make some food or something i don't want to put you on the spot i don't know why not we're ready i said we have a mouse in my pocket whatever you got i have the skillet i have everything all right uh albert albidam says ian what's so great about useless graphene oh well how much time you got it's 954 i can give you about 30 seconds did you see his shirt um it's a great shirt it's 200 times stronger than steel by weight so it's fantastic just structurally as a building material it's more conductive than copper it's deformable like

paper so you can make clothing out of it you can make wallpaper out of it uh it's pure carbon you make space elevator tethers out of it i think that's the idea is we're gonna be making our tethers for our space elevators out of graphene if you build it in the right it's really the pheno structure this hexagonal honeycomb structure so you have borophene it's boron you don't need just carbon so there's there's this compressive force in this lattice that's pretty fantastic and i think if you layer property you'll be able to make wiring that can conduct and capacitate electricity uh lightning lightning electricity do you think uh about a half an hour 40 minutes is enough time to make something yeah yeah all right all right so right. So we'll just film it raw.

Yeah. Because otherwise we don't have time to edit, and then we'll just put the whole thing up. We'll see if someone's available to film, and we'll go down, film, and we'll just do like a raw behind-the-scenes food. Yeah, that'd be cool. Yeah.

The only thing I ate today, I had two protein bars and a bowl of lobster bisque. I just had coffee. I had nothing. Yeah, I had coffee. And I'm like sitting there thinking like, man, I probably need to eat food. I'm not eating.

Oh, I had an apple. I had an apple. Chicken liver, beef with peppers. Oh, sounds amazing. And then fruit in the morning. Hey, Andrew, do you like red pepper

or green pepper better? Green pepper for like cheesy fatty things just because it's a little bit more vegetal and then red pepper for raw or salad type dishes. I those those those those peppers that caramakes the the bacon wrapped cream cheese jalapenos stuff i just like ate like 15 of them when she made them last it's a great use of pepper man it's cheese and wrap it yep oh man give it a grill tastes so good man i'm getting hungry what's going on all right my plan has worked rolling

crest says i love gore melts i mean even the name is making me hungry just want to want to go eat there yeah go to go to go to fredericksburg virginia and eat at gore melts do it all right seth weathers says eat steak lift weights be uncensorable screw the government seth weathers all right good advice that's very good right advice what's uh i forget your website seth brandon rap is that what it was brandon rapping or something you want to check that out real quick is it brandon rap that's the guy who sells like the different like christmas wrapping yeah the let's go brandon wrapping paper which is like the best thing to get a family member i just yeah yeah yeah there was a i was

at the casino like this weekend and there was a guy named Brandon and the old guys next to me were like, let's go, Brandon! And then they looked at each other and started laughing and then I just started laughing like, yeah, that's right.

Is this the That's a Wrap? Yeah, I'm trying to find it. I'm not... The Let's Go Brandon wrapping paper? Yeah, on the fly. Ah! Freedom.

My heel. What is it? Go for it. I'll let you know. My heel says, ah, mercury, sweetest of the transition metals. Mmm.

That's right, that's right. david todd says when i was a teen working at office max we sold lifetime warranty tables lifetime warranty was the brand name and it had a one month warranty wow that is brilliant yeah there's there's companies called like homemade ice cream, handcrafted, and it's just like, it's a brand. It's ridiculous. That's such crap. I mean, that is just, gosh, the law should protect people from misleading their targeted, their customer base. What do you think?

Should people be allowed to sell real organic fruit and not tell you that it's actually glyphosate or whatever? Was it glyphosate? Glyphosate. Glyphosate. But it's like, hey, our brand name is called Real Organic and No G glyphosate or whatever. Was it glyphosate? Glyphosate. But it's like, hey, our brand name is called Real Organic and no glyphosate fruit. Should they be allowed to do that? I mean, obviously the market would correct itself.

How would it correct for it? And people would do the test and people would see it. And I don't know. It's a complex question. There's many different variables. Automatically, I think that the problem would solve itself and the scam would be exposed like most scams usually are. Perhaps.

I don't think that issue means definitively there should be a government regulation on it. I'm just saying the average person... Look, I'll tell you a story. I went to a mall and they were doing that. You ever see those balance bracelets? Oh, yeah. It's a con.

And I'm surprised they're allowed to sell these things they sell you these bracelets and they tell you it improves your core strength it's got a reverse ion charge blah blah blah and then they use a center of gravity illusion to manipulate you into thinking it works what they do is they have you stand with your feet together and put your arms out and they'll put their hand on your arm and pull slightly down to the right away from your center of gravity you'll fall over instantly then they'll say now put on the power band and when you do they'll push into your center of gravity and they can push down as hard as they can as long as they go slightly left and you won't fall and they say wow look at this take it off and

i'll show you again and then they knock you over it It's a trick. And I'm like, how are they allowed to do this? The FTC, you know what? To Luke's point, incompetent. They would like go after these companies, find them. They'd shut down, reopen, do the exact same thing. Make millions of dollars. So, you know, I guess they gave a good college try, but they were completely ineffective at stopping this stuff.

Wait until you find out about Big Pharma. Yes. And what they're doing. I spent $25 for a bronze engraving of Abraham Lincoln once. They sent me a penny. Wow. Is that true, though? No.

were swatted and the cops are here so right now yeah uh well actually they may have been here earlier uh so i'm just checking my messages now and uh there you go uh security dealt with it so we we went we went we went a period where we didn't report any of this stuff was happening because people kept telling us if you keep saying it'll keep happening and then it kept happening anyway so i'm like no maybe now we just need to let people know like what's happening is actually of this stuff was happening because people kept telling us if you keep saying it, it'll keep happening. And then it kept happening anyway. So I'm like, no, maybe now we just need to let people know what's happening is actually very, very serious and it's escalating.

That's the reality of what's been going on. All you cops out there that are listening, thanks for being on the ball with this one. Thanks for coming.
